Like most people here, I think this thread has long ago served whatever
usefulness it will have. I'm not interested in continuing it.
I'll just respond to some direct questions, but don't take any lack of

No escaping is not something possible, in your suggested syntax ") is
ambigous. E.g. raw("abcd")") is ambigous.
Any sequence delimited string involves escaping, the only thing that
wouldnt would be size-defined strings but they are impractical.

It's semantically different though. I don't know whether single quotes

Quite often I need raw string literals for concatenating console commands.
I want to input them exactly as they are in python sources.
There is r"" string, but it is obviously not enough because e.g. this:
s = r"ffmpeg -i "\\server-01\D\SER_Bigl.mpg" "
is not valid.

Poor souls. It isn't pretty when the mind lets go. Maybe it sounds cold,

not bother themselves about the why of things, to not pay attention to
