Btw: If you want to encode "${hex:00}" literally, you need to write

"${hex:24}{hex:00}" is shorter and IMHO clearer.

Hmm. 2.4.2 says further:

  NUL (US-ASCII 0) is not allowed in strings.

How about:

  An unencoded NUL (US-ASCII 0) is not allowed in strings, see section
  2.4.2.4 for encoded characters.

I think that clarification is useful.  "Literal NUL ..." works, too.
