No, it is only in the POSTMATCH part. If you add it to the PREMATCH part
too, then your example would work. But I think it would be neater to put a
pair of literal "zero width space" characters in your file. I managed to
get this to work by doing:
(setq org-emphasis-regexp-components '("[:space:][:cntrl:]('\"{}"
"[:space:][:cntrl:]-.,:!?;'\")}\\[" "[:space:][:cntrl:]" "." 1))
This means you can write "fuzzy/wuzzy/wuzzabear" where there is a 0x200B
character (ZERO WIDTH SPACE) either side of /wuzzy/ (hopefully this will
survive in the email). I inserted the characters with "C-x 8 RET ...".
In case you prefer to have something more visible in the source file, I
also made it so you can use any ascii control character to bracket the
delimiters. For instance, the NULL character: "fuzzy^@/wuzzy/^@bear".
Note that those are not real NULLs, but are how they appear in the emacs
buffer. You can insert them with "C-q 0 RET".
