I also found that it was quite hard to plugin custom ESCAPE types - so I modified my copy of H::T so that the escaping code is handled by subclasses of a new H::T::ESCAPE module.

The idea is that you subclasss H::T::ESCAPE, then submit the new escape-type back for everyone else to use.
You can download my version of H::T here:  http://members.optusnet.com.au/mathew

Hope this helps,
