So after some poking around. In the DOT language, backslashes in the label of a node a allowed and should not be seen as escaping characters. However renderers may, and in this case I believe that's what is happening. So this means the backslash munging needs to go into the client side, not language server as the server is outputting a valid DOT file.

See footnote # 1 in http://www.graphviz.org/doc/info/lang.html
