Syntactical correctness obviously depends on the syntax specification.
To cancle the special meaning of ALL backlashes in a raw string literal
makes a lot of sense to me. Currently, the behavior of backslashes
in a raw string literal is rather complicated I think.
In fact, the backlashes can still escape quotes in a raw string,
and one the other hand, it also remains in the string -- I'm
wondering what kind of use case is there to justify such a behavior?
Surely, my experience is way too limited to make a solid judgement,
I Hope others would shed light on this issue.
