Yes; that's correct analysis.

Supporting them is easy to achieve.

Change the lines in  graphics.perl  and  graphicx.perl  and  psfrag.perl from

psfragstar # {} # {}
psfrag # {} # {}

to

psfragstar # {} # [] # [] # {}
psfrag # {} # [] # [] # {}


Are there other positions in which optional arguments can occur,
either with \psfrag or with other commands defined in the psfrag package ?

Hope this helps,
