Paul King commented on GROOVY-11791:
------------------------------------
The simple cases (like shown above) are catered for by syntax highlighting but
in some scenarios the "//" in "http://"; is picked up as the line comment
delimiter and highlighted as such (in which case the remainder of the URL can
be difficult to see in some themes). In such cases, you may want to explicitly
add the quotes, and not use this shortcut.
