Because IE 6.x will behave like IE 5.5 if it is in quirks mode, any hack used to account for the differences in behaviour between IE 6 in standards mode and Win IE 5.x will not work as planned. Be sure that your HTML document will be interpretted in standards mode in IE 6 if you are going to use this hack (or others like the High Pass Filter, Simplified Box Model, or Inline High Pass Filter).
The entire stylesheet that contains a declaration with an escape in it will be ignored. None of the rules will be applied to the document.
All rules that contain a declaration with an escape in them will be ignored (the rest of the declarations in the rule will be ignored whether they proceed or follow the declaration with the escape in it).

Though called the Simplified Box Model Hack, this hack is just one part of the Simplified Box Model Hack as explained in the original post on the SBMH and summarized on the css-discuss wiki page on box model hacks.
This hack is also featured in the Modified SBMH.
Like all hacks that use escaping, the character after the \ must not be between '0' and '9' or 'a' and 'f' (or 'A' and 'F') because these can be interpreted as hex character codes and not as the literal character.
