I'm like 60% sure that would work just fine. :-)I'm pretty sure it would fail. Prove me wrong! Searching the JDK sources for regex ^ *\*.*\\u[0-9a-fA-F]{4} is a good way to find javadoc bugs, e.g. http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#toLowerCase()
Ah, you're right. It worked in my previewer but not in the actual javadoc. It's pretty bad that that sequence has special meaning but you can't escape a \ with another \. I guess in the worst case you could always do \u005CD800 or something like that.
