[aeschli]

• VSCode Version: 1.1.1
• OS Version: OS X 10.11.4

Steps to Reproduce:

1. change language mode to clojure in editor
2. Write #"\\ regexp somewhere, for ex. '(#"\\" 3 "" 4 5) or

(defn decode-embed-json
  [^String s]
  (-> s
      (string/replace #"\\" "")
      json/read-str))

(even github has this issue, lol)

1. Instead of proper hightlighting we see this
