OK, we won't make any precipitate changes, and it may make sense to treat different "foreign" languages differently. (We already handle python specially on account of its idiosyncratic treatment of white space as syntactically significant.) But could you elaborate on how string substitution is convenient in relation to R? (Maybe we could recommend an alternative approach, or maybe not.)
