There's a bit more specific Public Law citations possible from the context in Congressional bills. Looking through every bit of markup Deepbills has ever done I find the following hits with richer tags that might be searched for:

Probably true, though from a regex standpoint I'm not sure how much different capturing (a)(4) will be from capturing (a)(4)(A)(v) when both will be bounded by "Section" on the left and "of" on the right - depends on the methodology, I guess. Putting it into a labeled structure will probably be more persnickity.
