Yes, this has been my experience as well. I was trying to use it for 
basically the same thing on my home page CSS redesign -- to make IE do 
absolute positioning and others do fixed. But they apparently fixed the 
escaped character parsing without fixing fixed positioning.

I ended up taking advantage of the fact to do a little standards 
grandstanding, actually:

The four button graphics should be fixed in the lower right corner in 
Moz, but aren't in IE, exposing a hidden message.
