Lighthouse is confused by titles, actions, or descriptions ending with properly-escaped \ #56

For example, an input item of {\\|\\} is displayed as \|\}, whereas it should be displayed as simply \. AFAICS this input item is correctly escaped.

I have tried various levels of escaping, and tested both with ({\\|\\|\\}, which is rendered as \|\|\}) and without a description. None of them produce a sensible result.

Removing the escape handling from cmd, so the input item is {\|\} or {\|\|\}, is AFAICS incorrect, but just for your information, it results in displays showing \|} and \||} respectively.
