Looks great - unlike java which is somehow recommending the format: STR."Hello \{this.user.firstname()}, how are you?\nIt's \{tempC}°C today!" compared to scala s"Hello ${this.user.firstname()}, how are you?\nIt's ${tempC}°C today!" STR."" ? really?

also a syntax for braces that looks like escaping

    \{ is currently invalid syntax in Java, so it can be given a meaning. ${ is valid syntax (the string value "$\") so giving it a new meaning would break existing programs. That's not acceptable.
