> Currently GQL does not have a escape character. Adding the escape character will help in special character cases for example where a search term contains both colon ({{:}}) and quote ({{"}}) character.
> for example search string is {{foo:bar}}, if term is put in quote {{"foo:bar"}} and this whole term is considered as a single search value. 
> But in case user need to search {{foo"abc:bar}} then putting this term in quotes won't work. But if GQL will have a escape character, then user can search this term using escape character.
