You mean "to this user" ;-)

Indeed.  I do expect that most programmers will use " in text-mode in
ways that behave well when treated as string delimiters, so that might
be a good option in general, but if some text contains a non-matched "
the behavior tends to be pretty annoying, so I'm not sure it's a safe
enough change.
