--- Comment #3 from Alfred Agrell <blubban at gmail dot com> ---
https://262.ecma-international.org/#prod-SyntaxCharacter says
SyntaxCharacter :: one of
^ $ \ . * + ? ( ) [ ] { } |
PatternCharacter ::
SourceCharacter but not SyntaxCharacter
so I believe that regex is, in fact, invalid, and browsers accepting it is some
kind of compatibility extension.
But I agree it's complicated. Does the C++ spec ever say which version of
ECMA-262 those regexes should match?
