Searching for an exact string using JQL with \" is not working

Summary

If you try to use JQL to search for issues with exact string using \", for example: "\" exact string \"", it should only find issues matching the whole expression, but it is finding issues containing the separate words.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Go to the 'Search Issues' screen.
2. Try searching for issues with an exact string using \", as the example below:

text ~ "\"this is an example\""

Expected Results

You will find all the issues that contain the exact string (whole expression) 'this is an example'.

Actual Results

All issues that contain all the separate words.

Workaround

It doesn't have a workaround.
