Sorry, I was confused by the manual: the paragraph that starts "C-style
backslash escapes are also available..." is right after the paragraphs on
dollar-quoting.
The section on dollar-quoting is also not explicit about valid tags, "zero
or more characters" is all I can see. Can you give me a definitive answer
as to what is valid? AFAICT, must be [A-Z,a-z,0-9,_]*, with non-numeric
start. Is that right?
