This comes up every time. Options:
1. You disallow it. And you might as well disallow all the control codes except the carriage return, line feed, and other “spacing” characters. Because what are they doing in the data proper? They are in-band signals.
2. You use the Escape character to escape them
3. Weirdest option: if you really want to nest in a limited way you can still use the group and file separator characters
