Would it be reasonable to start deprecating this and eventually remove it from the language?
I'm rather -1. It's quite convenient and I don't want to add some '+' signs everywhere I use it. I'm sure many people also have long string literals out there and will have to endure the pain of a dull task to "fix" their code.
However, in your case, foo('a' 'b') could raise a SyntaxWarning, since the "continuation" is on the same line.
I was going to say the exact same thing -- you just read my mind :)
