Be careful when generalizing this: The SFString in X3D XML is an
exception here, it does not treat backslashes in any special way, we
discussed this 2 months earlier :) See my mail "Backslashes in X3D XML
in SFString" to x3d-public on 2017-05-11,
http://web3d.org/pipermail/x3d-public_web3d.org/2017-May/006690.html .

(We really should include the results of that discussions in the
specification eventually :) My proposed spec corrections are attached
to the thread linked above.)
