Since Python has built-in syntax for interpolated strings, I believe it's a 
good area to idea to extend it to pattern matching, like so:

    def unquote(string: str) -> str:
        match string:
            case f'"{value}"':
                return value
            case f"'{value}'":
                return value
            case _:
                return string

Doing this with current match syntax is not as easy.

I have other reasons to consider this idea as well, but before I try to pursue 
this, I'd like to know if something like this was already discussed when the 
proposal was being made?
