That is a nice alternative for long text, but when building 
websites you often deal with many shorter blocks of text.

Anyway. Although I prefer """ as it is visually cleaner, C++ 
actually has something similar to D:

const char* s1 = R"foo(
Hello
World
)foo";

So, highlighters need to support that if they want to support 
C++...
