Comment(by maeder):
Add: "Names containing primes can not be quoted if they would become legal
haskell character literals." http://www.haskell.org/onlinelibrary/syntax-
iso.html#sect9.2 (char)
Any chance you disallow all names containing primes in the implementation
just to increase the gap between a bad literal 'ab' and a difficult to
read quote?
