I was trying to write <-[ \] \s ]> but had a very difficult time figuring out how to do this from the documentation. Perl5 mentions their special cases for [^]] pretty eagerly, so I was trying to do something similar. Attempting to use ' to quote didn't work either, and there were no examples of using \ for simple escaping.

This ticket is probably about this section: https://docs.perl6.org/language/regexes#index-entry-regex_%3C%5B_%5D%3E-regex_%3C-%5B_%5D%3E-Enumerated_character_classes_and_ranges
