Nope, it does not. Channel log says:
82.925983 RECV on 0: '["ex", 'call feedkeys("ggOHello, world!\\e")']'
82.926009 ERR on 0: Decoding failed - discarding input

I still think, it's somehow related to the handler. Or is this, too, written in Python?

Out of curiousity, I tried the same but with a simple socket, established via "netcat".
["ex", "call feedkeys(\"ggOHello, world!\\e\")"] works
["ex", 'call feedkeys("ggOHello, world!\\e")'] does not
