I am definitely interested in a solution to this (based on a related discussion we had here earlier): http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg100527.html I'd happy to contribute to it as I can, but I don't know where to start. But as soon as I see some activity related to backslash escaping, I'd happily be involved in the code development. -- Kaushal Modi
