Sounds legit.

I think the deal is that all (?) of the other escapes can be dealt with
via the equivalent of a `case' expression. This one requires a property
lookup. It's not as nice.

Also note the thread at
http://lists.r6rs.org/pipermail/r6rs-discuss/2010-November/006146.html.

Is there a use case for allowing intraline spaces before the newline?
Disallowing that would eliminate a state in the parser.
