Escaping in json values not present in log output

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Ha a service that reurns the following json
{
  "queryString": "(\"Foo\" AND ())"
}
2.enable logging by creating a ResponseSpecification log().status()

What is the expected output? 
I would expect it to log what's actually in the response body and which is 
valid json, i.e:

{
  "queryString": "(\"Foo\" AND ())"
}

What do you see instead?
{
  "queryString": "("Foo" AND ())"
}

What version of the product are you using? 

1.6.2

Correction: the logging should be enabled with log().body() or log().full(), 
not with log().status()

How does your service return it? As a string? In that case I think it's correct 
since \" will read as " in Java. If you're in doubt check with wireshark and 
see what's actually sent on the wire.

The service returns \", the escape is present over the wire as well as when 
directly consumng the body such as with ResponseBody.asString(). Without the 
esacpe it wouldn't be valid json.
