@Cedric: Your proposed change would break template literals. Consider this
example:
```js
const tag = () => 1;
console.log(tag`test`); // Valid syntax, but no way to keep apart tagged
template literals from your syntax syntactically
```
Further, with your approach, I don't see a way to take care of proper spacing
between the injected variables.
How would you concatenate just two variables, `a` and `b`, without a space in
between, without accidentally referencing `ab`?
Lastly, is there any considerable benefit from your proposal, apart from maybe
saving a space character in certain cases?
In most real-world use cases, template literals are usually shorter than their
`+` equivalent, even if you uglify your whitespace:
```js
const message1 = `Good job, ${user.name}! You've earned ${user.points} with
your comment.`;
const message2 = "Good job, " + user.name + "! You've earned " + user.points +
" with your comment.";
const message3 = "Good job, "+user.name+"! You've earned "+user.points+" with
your comment.";
```
