I'm not sure what's meant by "a string method name" above, but
I'd look at it as:
.local string

To be on the safe side, method (and function) names *should* be quoted. I
don't think that this is inconsistent.
Is there a reason that you would want to conflate method names and
variables used as a method name? If not, why not change the syntax
slightly so that me

Not easily:

There seems to be the impression that generating PIR calls from a compiler is
hard because it may look like:
$S0 = obj.'_meth'(arg1, arg2)
but this also works:
.pcc_begin
.arg "hello"
.arg "\n"
.invocant obj
.meth_call "_meth"
.result $S0
.
