Some sort of literal string syntax would also be very useful for
    regular expressions, since the Emacs syntax tends to be
    backslash-heavy.

In theory we could install such a syntax as an alternative.  However,
the need to be able to parse sexps both forward and backward (in
forward-sexp, etc.) could make it difficult to design such a syntax
that would really fit in Emacs.
