We could, but it seems gross.

I'm not to worried about changing the file format, but I am worried about
limitations due to the file format bubbling up to the end-user interface
(e.g., due to roping off possible characters that could otherwise be used
in a link property name or value).  I'd also like to ensure we keep the
parser implementation simple and minimal.
