Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-10642:
----------------------------------------

bq. From the user perspective, is it non-intuitive why the character classes 
should be denoted with two slashes

That's only in Java code (the usual stupidness) and possibly JSON.

> Interesting issue has been reported to Opensearch project [1], which has been 
> caused by [2], [3]. In the nutshell, the regression is causing escape 
> sequences (like \n, \r, \t, ...) to be treated as character classes 
> (specifically, 
> [https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/regex/Pattern.html#bs).]
> The problematic function is RegExp::matchPredefinedCharacterClass which does 
> not consider characters that denote an escaped construct. Simple test to 
> reproduce which fails with IllegalArgumentException("{color:#0451a5}invalid 
> character class{color}"):
