An example of this is biting one's butt is Python: when doing a function
comment of the form,
def something():
"""
This is what my function does
"""
pass
the insertion of the extra " gets annoying. The "easy" behavior is "don't
add an extra quote if the mode is python and there's already three in the
preceding characters" but my head is spinning thinking of how to implement
that.
