Oh, come on! What is so hard about typing #?  On an English
keyboard, you already need to be pressing the shift key to get the
" that you'll type for your string anyway.

Rewriting the parser for such a trivial thing would be a waste of
resources.  Just get used to typing #, just like {} or ,' or any
other piece of lilypond input.  The docs are supposed to use #""
all the time, to reinforce this point.
