But when writing, it is written as .\Folder\FolderB (which is incorrect), too? Didn't find the source where it replaces the double \\ with \ on reading. Where does that happen?

    Sounds like a bug.

    Another optional escape is for /, which can, but is not always escaped as \/, it is however "good practice" to escape / to guard against XSS in case the JSON ends up in HTML or a JavaScript section.
