Currently invisible control characters aside from whitespace (tabs, newlines, formfeeds, carriage returns) are prohibited outside of comments and string literals. As discussed in this thread:

https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/DN24FK3A2DSO4HBGEDGJXERSAUYK6VK6/

we should ban C0 and C1 control characters (aside from \t\n\f\r) in string literals and comments too.

To be clear, the ban is on actual invisible control characters, not escape sequences.
