How to escape colon in ui-control in dashboard 2?

Dashboard
1

I am currently moving all my dashboards from dashboard 1 to dashboard 2. Amongst a lot of other things, also the syntax for group visibility changed and I have a problem with a group with a colon in its name.

I am injection the following JSON into a ui-control:

{
    "groups": {
        "hide": [
            "MyPage:This is: My Group"
        ]
    }
}

Just for testing the new syntax, I tried the following which worked:

{
    "groups": {
        "hide": [
            "MyPage:testgroup"
        ]
    }
}

So obviously the colon and/or the spaces in the group name are a problem. I tried already some escape methods (backslash, single quotes, double quotes), but nothing worked. What would be the correct syntax for my group?
