leading_separator:

    description:
    - Use in conjunction with keyed_groups.
    - By default, a keyed group that does not have a prefix or a separator provided will
      have a name that starts with an underscore.
    - This is because the default prefix is "" and the default separator is "_".
    - Set this option to False to omit the leading underscore (or other separator) if
      no prefix is given.
    - If the group name is derived from a mapping the separator is still used to concatenate
      the items.
    - To not use a separator in the group name at all, set the separator for the keyed
      group to an empty string instead.
