Not at all!
The pages I'm generating contain both data bound from business layer, and 
static literals.
Values of these static literals are out of my control.
If I shall reserve any character for a purpose of character map then I 
should replace those characters in those literals.

The problem could be solvable if character map provided string 
substitutions rather than substitution of a single character.
This way one could model escape sequences.

I agree that there are ways to workaround the problem.
At present I'm inclined to use approach similar to Liam's Method (1).
I'm just wondering if I'm missing something, if there is a simple 
solution?
