Description

You get the following exception:

java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 3
at java.lang.String.substring(String.java:1935)
at org.apache.jackrabbit.util.Text.unescape(Text.java:407)
at org.apache.jackrabbit.util.Text.unescape(Text.java:438)

It would be better if it failed with IllegalArgumentException.
