The only "escape" mechanism is that g.angleBrackets(s) will return s
surrounded by '<<' and '>>'.

I assume you mean that Leo's read and write code would provide a way
of saying, "ignore what looks like a section reference in this line
(or piece of code)".

Sorry, but that can never happen. More than 10 years ago now, when I
first discovered noweb and decided to base Leo's LP syntax on noweb, I
made an explicit decision not to support any of noweb's escape
conventions.  This was based on my experience of trying to support
escape conventions in @root trees.  It's a nightmare.  I have never
once regretted this decision.
