String literals for succinctly creating Strings instead of &strs?

  Modern embedded framework, using Rust and async.

  

The issue is that the OP is proposing that a special language feature be included that auto-allocates Strings as a special case. Their problem is that you have to call a function in order to allocate, and they want a more concise way to allocate (perhaps s"foo"?) but the reason you can't do that is that language features are not allowed to assume the presence of an allocator. Even async which is almost always used in such an environment does not technically require this, which is leveraged for frameworks like embassy.

Proposed by Mara Bos herself and disposition: close'd in RFC 3267: Short Macro Invocation Syntax: m!123 and m!"abc". I was one of the voices arguing against it.
