That's a good solution. Very few down sides (X in the global table,
extra string literals).
The patch also provides for hexadecimal escape characters within
strings; it sounds like Todor does not need that. I find it to be very
useful, though there are Lua ways around that, too. If you don't need
speed and you don't have a problem with the overhead involved, stick
with the Lua-only solutions.
