Why are '#' characters not allowed in descriptions?

  my $builder = Test::Builder->new;
  $builder->todo_start('hash mark filtering not implemented')
  unlike $result, qr/#/, 'Result does not contain #';
  $builder->todo_end;

Sometimes that's something may want in a description and it reads naturally.  I'd like to see the hash mark (octothorpe, whatever), escaped:

  ok 3 - Result does not contain \# # TODO hash mark filtering unimplemented

Might be nice to have.  What are the implications?
