Unexpected auto-concatenation of string elements:

It comes from C.

In C you can write stuff like:

char* foo = "Foo is good but... "
            "... bar is better!";

Eg static string concatenation for multiline/macros etc.

Think it was implemented this way to provide better support for converting c codebases.
