unable to escape htl expression

[tripodsan]

the spec states:

Like in JSP (see section "1.2.2 Literal-expression" from the JSP 2.1 Expression Language Specification), to escape an expression (the ${), it can be prefixed it with a backslash \${)).

but this doesn't work:

    ${"<div>\${currentNode.path}</div>" @ context = "text"}

gives:

TypeError: Cannot destructure property `plugin` of 'undefined' or 'null'.

workaround: use unicode escape:

    ${"<div>\u0024{currentNode.path\u007d</div>" @ context = "text"}
