I noticed that squirrel strings in attract mode don't support Unicode escape chars. Can that be added in?

For example this works great on squirrel 3.2 but fails when run in a attract mode layout:

local text = "OK, Maybe It\u2019s Too Much Pepper\n";
print(text);

Unfortunately it's not that easy. We've tried to update Squirrel to the latest version, but Squrrel also needs a new Sqrat, a c++ bridge, which did not play well with AM.

Thanks, would be nice to have but I can work around that for the moment.
