Would it work to call this process autoquoting, instead of
stringification? I'm assuming other means of stringification do not
involve interpreting barewords.

Wasn't there going te be a feature to trans entire strings? i.e. 'foo'
=> 'bar', where foo is a single thing replaced by bar. Does this not
exclude any possibility of specifying ranges in strings?
