There's no standard. I just mentioned some days ago that it might not be
very wise to capture properties and members because then the
autocompletion list could grow quite large. Sure, if all members begin
with e.g. 'm_' or something else which separates them from normal words,
it won't be a problem. But imagine writing a log message where every
word you type brings up the autocompletion just because there are
variable names which look the same as the word you type...

So no, there's no standard, just a recommendation. But it's up to the
ones providing the regexes to decide that - they know the language
they're providing the regex for better than me.
