I think it would be a good step if you could make some sensible interpretation

f "abc" 123

f( "abc", 123 )

It would be just the thing in a couple of situations... though it does conflict with raw-string 
literals as stated: r"abc"... which if you left open, would be susceptible to a local 
definition of r!.  Maybe you could put it after, like numeric literals: 123L, "abc"r, 
which is not bad.

Surely this would require that
  f( "abc", 123 )
  -->
  f(("abc", 123))
Or would you require that tuple-formation is "special"?
