Yeah, unfortunately, this is how our parser works.

A fix would go in somewhere near https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/blob/57048c17a296d301bf538f7d98a7c17940e64b07/src/main/java/org/jabref/logic/importer/fileformat/BibtexParser.java#LL912C16-L912C16

Maybe, you have some time to dive into this? We have a number of test cases ensuring that the other parsing behavior is still working.

This is a follow-up to https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/9668.
