Description
Reserved words in Swift are supposed to be escaped with backticks: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/Swift/Conceptual/Swift_Programming_Language/LexicalStructure.html
Trying to override escapeReservedWord results in the backticks being encoded:
return '_' + name + '_'; // Results in: public var _protocol_: ModelProtocol?
return '`' + name + '`'; // Results in: public var `protocol`: ModelProtocol?
Is this an issue with Handlebars?
