Highlight Issue With \\ In String

[dandv 0]

Paste the code below in a .JS file (using the default NDN.HGL entry for .JS that ships with NDN):

 

a = "\\";
this_is_not_a_string = 2;
b = "/*";
text here and below is highlighted as comment

 

I think the error starts from the double backslash, so that the /* believes it's NOT in a string, but then it's strange how this_is_not_a_string = 2; is not highlighted as a string.
