Ideally both - since we should be able to catch that we're in a string
in many instances.  That said, it gets a bit more complicated in
practice because inserting without a leading '"' or trailing '"' means
we don't have the context (unless we do something like apply the patch
and then scan the lines keeping the context).

We usually these kinds of errors since they are obviously tool
limitations.
