But the main question is: do we actually want a multiline string ? As far as I am concerned, that question needs to be answered first, and for
me personally the answer to that is still a resounding "no".

Me too. Mostly overrated IMHO, and ugly as sin exception on general rules.

Also goes for comments, but those have been in for a long time, so that is a bit moot.
You are aware that Pascal contained multi line comments (both "(* ... *)" and "{ ... }") before single line comments "// ... " where added? Though I also don't understand why you think multi line comments are overrated.
