There is one useful note in that thread.  ESC ctrl-e gets rid of the
backslash, and if you want to keep the $VAR as $VAR, backspace over
the terminal space and continue.  Or you can ESC ctrl-e again, and
convert the $VAR to its value, so you won't need to repeat the single
ESC ctrl-e for each further <tab>.  A tolerable workaround for now.
