It seems no such problem has been reported
Oh, please. This has been a flamewar since the 80's. Every angle you can think of has been tried before. The real question is why are we still using plain text. A lot of the difference between languages is this kind of absurd minutiae taken too seriously as if we're discussing about the reality fabric instead of mere conventions.
