TermL vs JSON: "\/"

JSON permits a quoted string to contain an escaped forward slash,  
"\/". TermL as currently implemented in E-on-Java does not.  
Furthermore, the escapes are implemented in  
org.quasiliteral.syntax.BaseLexer, such that it is nontrivial to apply  
the change just to TermLexer.

I assume that TermL should be changed, in accordance with the superset- 
of-JSON goal.

Should \/ be permitted in all other BaseLexer-derived languages? If  
not, how should it be changed to allow TermLexer to do so?
