It's rare to need to type these characters. More often than not, as happened this morning, people write things in the CCScriptWriter style of "shove all the commands into a string" and occasionally have copy-paste mistakes like this:

"{goto_if_true(0xc5e1d6)}]{load_registers}"

(In this case, a [1B 03 {e(data_xx.l_0xc5e1d6)}] only had its front half corrected to use a stdext command, and the ] from the control code was left in by accident.)

Not sure how many beginners' scripts have errors like this, or scripts on the wiki for that matter, so... yet another warning it is. I'm not attached to the specific method used for reporting the warning, I just wanted more freedom to write a natural error message
