<<Agreed. New proposal: deprecate multiline strings EXCEPT in asm directives.
Since asm is a keyword, it's easy enough to have it flip a mode bit in the
lexer to disable the error or warning. Then we object to multiline
strings in all contexts except asm.

Seems reasonable, after all asm is hardly an ISO standard feature :-)
