Yes! I didn't know this was out there -- it's always good to see other
people's approach to the same problems. Thanks!

It's true your package is closely tied to Org mode. I'm sure I'll still
be able to take some pointers from it, though. Thank god I'm not trying
to support vCard 2.1.

Here's where I'm at now. It does the escaping, but the line folding
(while implemented) isn't actually called; I'm still chewing on Eli's
pointers.
