Description Henrik Lindberg CLA 2010-10-20 11:12:33 EDT 
Before there was support for simple patterns ~"abc?xyz" the matches operator considered the rhs to be a simple pattern if it was a String. This is surprising and should be removed.
Comment 1 Henrik Lindberg CLA 2010-10-20 22:16:53 EDT 
Removed the special match call for two CharSequences - they now compare using equals.
Modified tests that used this to use SimplePatterns instead - i.e. ~"..."
