You don't have to use + to join strings on multiple lines. Here:

    >>> (" foo "
    ...  "bar.")
    ' foo bar.'

The other day I spent some time tracking down a bug where someone forgot a trailing comma in a multi-line parameter list.

That was annoying.

Ok, but this only works for literals.

Yes, which is what I'm replying to.
