It's probably so that you can still use characters that require escaping in 
the string without having to escape " everywhere. WYSIWYGS don't allow for 
escaping characters, which can be annoying periodically. Still, delimited 
strings do seem a bit funny to me, and I don't think that I've ever used them. 
Presumably, they solved some problem fairly nicely, but the only thing that I 
can think of is that they still allow for characters that require escaping but 
don't force you to escape ", which could be very useful in strings with lots 
of "s and other characters that need escaping.
