Could you put some magic at the beginning of the string that indicates it is encoded? 


For my own needs, yes I could probably define a handler for my special kind of abbreviations.

I have a too small number of such files, so I renamed them.

I mainly wanted to have an update (thanks Nicolas) on the current status about this escape thing
in case I missed something.
