I'd like to give https://github.com/benjamingr/RegExp.escape/issues/29
another week *please, if you have a strong opinion voice it* after which
we'll settle on a hopefully *final* API for RegExp.escape in terms of the
escaped parts.

Some parts so you won't have to read the whole thread (debated issues):

 - Numeric literals are escaped at the start of the string to not interfere
with capturing groups (yes/no)
 - Hex characters ([0-9a-f]) are escaped at the start of the string to not
interfere with unicode escape sequences (yes/no)
 - `/` is escaped to support passing a RegExp string to eval (yes/no)?

And so on.
