Unfortunately, there's no way to know if a string is a literal or not,
short of parsing the Ruby, and considering the sheer number of string
literals in Ruby, that seems very infeasible.

P.S.: off the top of my head:
"word"
'word'
%(word)
%[word]
%{word}
%q(word)
%q[word]
%q{word}
%Q(word)
%Q[word]
%Q{word}
<<STRING
word
STRING
<<-STRING
word
STRING
etc...
