Tuple construction already has a "no comma, no tuple" problem. That
problem remains, but as soon as you add a comma, you'll get the same
protection as you get for lists.

Having read and written tons of existing code, I'm not so sure about
that. A tool that wraps backslash-escaped blocks in parentheses would
take care of most cases. What's left after that is probably ambiguous
to a human reader anyway.
