Indeed. But you still can not do "foo\x0f\x00\x1c\xe0bar". 

I am the original poster of the '\x## notation' thread which has been
getting attention every now and then over the past weeks. A lot of
people have participated in this thread, and a lot of different opinions
were given, although most of those seem to be in favour of this future.

I am still very curious to hear if the Lua developers have managed to
form an official opinion on wether this is a feature likely to be added
to future Lua versions ?
