spreading args with regex

We have a wrapper function which allows us to use the async/await feature as part of our tests.

so effectively what we pass to cucumbers steps is something like the following:

this.Then(/^I do(.+) on page (.+)$`/, function(...args){

  //do something with varying number of arguments - in our case we forward the args to the function which will actually do the testing
});

Currently this throws an error suggesting we are not catering for the number of args (in the case above it would be 3 (if returning promise or synchronous) and 4 (if using callbacks) required.

Is there a workaround for this use case? If not is there a way it can detect if we are catering for N arguments ?

I strongly believe this should be re-opened I’m hitting the same issue with spread-args Since they are super useful (especially for wrapping step functions in an idiomatic way) and ECMAScript-compliant I feel that cucumber-js should not prevent anyone from using language features
