Comment (by Looimaster):

 I think that it happens in:
 http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.5.1/wp-includes/meta.php#L0

 When it performs:

 {{{
 // expected_slashed ($meta_key)
 46 $meta_key = stripslashes($meta_key);
 47 $meta_value = stripslashes_deep($meta_value);
 48 $meta_value = sanitize_meta( $meta_key, $meta_value, $meta_type );
 }}}

 So, it is there for a reason but it is conflicting my strings by removing
 slashes from them... Shouldn't a string always remain an intact string?
