I agree that it's best to store all DOIs and URLs in BibTeX files as raw data, 
i.e., without any backslash escaping. This has at least several advantages:

1. The DOI and URL icons in BibDesk can be clicked and they work.
2. URLs can be selected from BibTeX files in a text editor and opened in a web 
browser without any need to strip the backslashes from them.
3. The BibTeX file can be used with non-LaTeX workflows, notably: using Pandoc 
with CiteProc: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandoc

If you use a LaTeX template (or style file) that seems to require using BibTeX 
files with backslash escaping in DOIs and URLs, then it's best to edit the 
template to eliminate that requirement.
