While I am not sure I understand the "real problem", I observed that the 
obvious variant doesn't work:

$ mtn pull venge.net 'net.venge.monotone{,.*}'
mtn: connecting to venge.net
mtn: fatal: boost::regex_error: Empty expression
mtn: this is almost certainly a bug in monotone.

and I wondered why boost regex can't handle something like this:
  ^net\.venge\.montone(|\..*)$

Anyway, at the summit, it was decided to get rid of boost::re, so this is 
probably not worth investigating.
