The better solution is allow control over what the terminating characters are. Rust raw strings allow N ‘#’ characters around them, like r”x”, r#”x”, r#####”x with “quotes””#####. So no escapes are ever needed, just increase the number of hashes to outstrip the maximum consecutive hashes appearing in the string after a quote character.
