Doing this by default violates alpha rename-ability.
To ease lexing worries, we simplified the quasis proposal at the last minute
from accepting (informally)
Identifier `....${ Expression }....`
to
Identifier `....${ IdentifierDottedPathExpression }....`
Having now tried to write quasis within this restriction, I believe we chose
too strong a restriction at this last minute and need to find some way to
relax it. More on that later.
If we relax this position back towards Expression, then, if you want to pass
such pairs, you could do so:
foo`...${ {bar} }...${ {baz} }...`
Recall that {bar} will be syntactic sugar for {bar: bar}. So this would
expand to
foo(literalPartsRecord, {bar: bar}, {baz: baz})
