It's OK. I was scanning and picking a safe number of '=' signs for each PNG.
FWIW just escaping a handful of characters in a traditional string literal encoding doesn't take
appreciably more bytes, and I still get to use the built in lexer to do my decoding without the overhead
of an intermediary encoding form.
