Good, let's try it then. So in which file is the code and the missing support. In which langage should I program for this?

The problem isn't that the request is denied, but that the
support for slashes through beams never has been implemented.
In the mailing list archives, you can find that this question has
popped up a number of times and you can also find some tricks
to fake the slash. However, it would be great if you could take
a look and make a proper implementation.
