The fact that \ is an escape character for \t (i.e. TAB) for example makes the "text search" feature less intuitive, but copy/pasting any text (from a VS Editor window, for example) should always results in searching for the pasted text.
This should apply to non-regex search code only.
To support escape characters, which is very uncommon, maybe a new option should be available (maybe a new button at the top of the Code Search window?)
