CL-PPCRE just tells me a), and I also want to know b). Is there any way to get this information (if it even exists) out of the scanner?
If I understand you correctly, this information isn't available. The regex engine doesn't make any plans about what might have happened if it had scanned another target string instead of the current one, so to say... :)
You might want to look at filters, though:

But generally, your problem to me looks as if regular expressions aren't the right way to tackle it.
