Ok, I give up. I think this is possible but I can't remember how.

I have a word like this: (barfoo)

with ( and ) defined as WordChars. The word gets indexes as (barfoo) but I can't 
search for it. I've tried escaping the () and putting them in double quotes but 
no luck.

Am I imagining that I've done this successfully before?
