What specific section or headline is this issue about?

Usage notes

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

If/when whatwg/urlpattern#198 is merged, the MDN description of the constructor should be updated to reflect it.

What did you expect to see?

All current examples should continue to work as described, but the description of how base URL inheritance works will become slightly misleading and some description of which components are wildcarded in constructor strings might be useful.

Do you have any supporting links, references, or citations?

whatwg/urlpattern#198

No changes needed until it is merged, but a filed MDN issue is a prerequisite to that under the WHATWG working mode.

Do you have anything more you want to share?

No response

FYI the trigger for an MDN update is both the spec updating and implementation in at least browser. I've added dev-doc-needed to the Mozilla issue, so docs will happen at latest when that goes in.

Understood; this is in expected to ship in Chrome 121 (modulo any unexpected problems).
