Bug Description

Midori 0.5.8 on Debian Wheezy AMD64 produces a warning when compiling https://easylist-downloads.adblockplus.org/easyprivacy+easylist.txt:

** (midori4:3581): WARNING **: subscriptions.vala:265: Adblock compile regexp: Error while compiling regular expression -Banner-Ad)- at char 10: ) without opening (

Midori may not be at fault here, the adblockplus site says re's can be used but, are parentheses usefull in adblock rules? perhaps they should be treated literally, maybe that is how the abdblocking extension for FF does it.
