Title:
  Syntax highlight (JS): Portions of expressions between / and / taken
  as regular expressions

Status in GtkSourceView Widget:
  Fix Released
Status in gtksourceview3 package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  See screenshot. This is a JS file.
  There are portions of expressions that are incorrectly highlighted in pink as if they were strings.

  There is no syntax error before or after the captured portion of text.
  The script is parsed as expected by the javascript interpreter, so the
  syntax highlight is wrong.

  Oh my ******* god, I see what the problem is!!
  The portion between "/" and "/" are highlighted as if they were regular expressions.

  But they aren't, nor does the parser of the language interpreter
  interpret them as such,  so the syntax highlighting is wrong.
