> Spun off of LUCENE-2604 where everyone agreed this needed done, but no one 
> has done it yet, and rmuir didn't want to leave the issue open...

> some issues were pointed out in a recent mailing list thread that definitely 
> seem like they should be addressed before this is officially released...
> * queryparsersyntax.xml doesn't mention this feature at all -- as major new 
> syntax is should really get it's own section with an example showing the 
> syntax
> * queryparsersyntax.xml's section on "Escaping Special Characters" needs to 
> mention that '/' is a special character
> Also: Given that Yury encountered some real world situations in which the new 
> syntax caused problems with existing queries, it seems like we should 
> definitely make a note about this possibility more promonient ... i'm not 
> sure if it makes sense in MIGRATE.txt but at a minimum it seems like the 
> existing CHANGES.txt entry should mention it, maybe something like...
> {noformat}
> * LUCENE-2604: Added RegexpQuery support to QueryParser. Regular expressions
>   are now directly supported by the standard queryparser using the syntax... 
>      fieldName:/expression/ OR /expression against default field/
>   Users who wish to search for literal "/" characters are advised to 
>   backslash-escape or quote those characters as needed.
