Will Glass-Husain reopened VELOCITY-519:
----------------------------------------
I don't see this something worth spending time on myself, but I think I'd
accept a patch to add this in.
It's a pretty basic functionality, and a fairly isolated change to the java cc
tokenizing code. I'd want to see something comprehensive (e.g. supporting \n
\r as well as unicode) before committing.
It would help Stepan if you could give some use cases describing why this is
needed and what problems it would solve.
