Should work correctly but the text will be truncated at the comma and the remaining text will have all of the spaces removed.
I know that the qst format had problems with commas. And if I understand how things work, the say command and text is still passed back and processed by parser.cpp where it parses the say text, finds the comma and treats it as an iterator or something. Plus wouldn't perl have already evaluated any escape strings like \,
