This is a Marc Stern modification, I don't have much more insight on the code he made. To be reviewed with caution and check if this is still relevant

Hi @JonathanBerrew,

it would be nice to explain the reason with an example, why it is necessary and in which case is it useful to allow \ in setvar action.

Sadly I don't know why Marc made those modifications, I wasn't working on the project at the time. If this seem unnecessary, you can close the PR

I see. I don't want to close this PR without any reason. If Marc made this modification, that means it's possible useful, but I would like to understand it. Beside of that, we need to documentation the behavior, and give examples to users, so this is why it would be good.

No tests, and no use cases. 🤷 I'll close.
