Minification can break some javascripts

[orlitzky]

With javascript minification enabled, the slider on the homepage of https://www.txindependencehealthplan.com/ no longer works.

I've taken a look at the code, and I don't really think this can be fixed easily. In this one instance, sure -- maybe. But the root of the issue is that regular expressions can't reliably parse html and javascript. (See e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6751105/why-its-not-possible-to-use-regex-to-parse-html-xml-a-formal-explanation-in-la for an explanation).

Would you be open to a warning on the settings page saying that the feature uses a regex heuristic and can affect the behavior of the site in some cases?

It can also break HTML content. If there is */* in blog post body, and some JS with comment later, whole part from /* to the end of JS comment (*/`) will be deleted. I reported this as issue 332, but it's deleted now (don't know why deleted, not closed).
