When using std.regex.replace the format parameter is also requiring to be a valid regex. The below example is expected to pass

import std.regex;

void main() {
    auto str = "hello?";

    assert(str.replace(regex(r"\?", "g"), r"\?") == r"hello\?");
}

This should fail:

import std.regex;

void main() {
    auto str = "hello?";

    assert(str.replace(regex(r"\?", "g"), r"\\?") != r"hello\?");
}

Maybe I'm wrong on this, but the current requirement seems off.

Strange.
But speaking of format string it is expected to be a plain string there is no
need to escape a thing in there IRC.

 The below example is expected to pass

Apparently it is, I'll take a look.
