Re: Arbritary characters (like colons) in node names (proposal)

[Karl Berry]

The quoting syntax used for images is intended to be extensible in the
obvious way to any other use.  I think the node quoting should use it
too.  The control character sequence it uses (address@hidden) was chosen to
minimize the chance of affecting any terminal output in browsers that
don't recognize it.  No one has reported any problems with it to my
knowledge.  Worrying about real info files containing address@hidden is not
necessary.

Sorry, can't write a full reply right now.
