Thank you for an update with the examples how current users will be
converted. Below review is based on the users I had seen so far and
assumptions made in this code. I see that it's tagged by maintainers,
but I can't help to comment again on this. In any case the decision is
up to them.

This misses examples of the (strange) escaping cases and wiped
whitespaces to make sure everybody understands that 'D 12' will be the
same as 'D1 2' (side note: which I disagree on, perhaps something
should be added into documentation why).

Do we have any evidence / document / standard that the above format is
what people would find good? From existing practices (I consider other
printings elsewhere and users in this series) I find '(xx)' form for
hex numbers is weird. The standard practice is to use \xHH (without
parentheses).

None of the existing users does that. Why?

This is perfectly one line (in this file we have even longer lines).
