You need an extra backslash on the escapes

<form version="1.0.0">
  <label>token eval drilldown</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <input type="dropdown" token="manager" searchWhenChanged="true">
      <label>Account Managers</label>
      <choice value="*">All</choice>
      <choice value="123&quot;,&quot;456&quot;,&quot;789&quot;,&quot;431C&quot;,&quot;343">XYZ</choice>
      <choice value="786&quot;,&quot;274&quot;,&quot;245&quot;,&quot;237&quot;,&quot;2523&quot;,&quot;245&quot;,&quot;257">ABC</choice>
