I was thinking about something and I don't know if it has been implemented and I missed it. Do we have string literals? In other words, if you want to put a bunch of text in an expression that would otherwise need to be individually escaped, do we have something like
//* freeform text *//

That lets us avoid having to escape each individual special character or whitespace in some chunk of text?

If not, that would be cool. It would make expressions more readable in many cases, especially for anything that touches a URL.

It's a good idea!

Next build we'll try this:
NEW: String literals can be defined in expressions by using /* comment here /*.  The text will be output without any formatting.

Nice!

This is in the latest build.
