Tried with pandoc 1.5.1.1 and its fixed there. Sorry about the noise.

I think you're mistaken in thinking it's "fixed" - 1.5.1.1 behaves the same.
To see why it behaves that way, do
% pandoc -t native
\Doe2008
Pandoc (Meta {docTitle = [], docAuthors = [], docDate = []})
[ Para [TeX "\Doe",Str "2008"] ]
pandoc interprets a backslash followed by a string of letters as a raw LaTeX
command. These aren't printed in HTML output, which is why you see the text
disappear.
If you use '--strict' mode, you won't see this behavior.
So I don't think this is a bug -- it's a pandoc feature that it allows you to use raw
LaTeX (perhaps a misguided feature, but now well established). And I think it makes
sense to skip raw LaTeX in HTML output, though early versions of pandoc did not.
Does that seem reasonable?

Completely forgot about this feature, even so I use it all the time (so no its not
misguided). I probably used -w markdown when I tried 1.5.1.1 instead of -w plain.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I'd expect 'Doe2008' but I see '2008'.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
pandoc 1.5.1 with citeproc and syntax highlighting on debian unstable.
