      Currently we have to do manual work arounds when storing dictionaries of type Dictionary<string,?> in Mongo as there will be runtime exceptions if the string key ever contains a dollar or dot. We would like the option to specify an escape sequence for these characters in the driver. E.g. We currently use the \x<ascii-hexcode> format for escaping them ($ = \x24 . = \x2E)
