It seems we need to force add "\" like symbol boxes do in these cases (but
not on adding a space, cause we usually want spaces in the list box).

In parallel, there's the idea to hide this force adding "\" visually on the
boxes, but this can be taken care further in both cases of list/symbol
boxes.
