IMHO, the BNF definition is correct: it accurately defines what you
can see on the wire and this is sufficient to extract frames. It does
not however define how to interpret what you extract from the wire,
like backslash escaping and UTF-8 encoding, which are defined elsewhere
in the STOMP 1.1 specification.
