I very much like option 3. I'm curious about one point you mentioned earlier,
and whether it's still a problem, though. After erasing the final delimiter,
are we in a place to add more quoted text? ISTR you saying that

zoi zoi I'm talking zoi si about quotes zoi

was invalid, or at least different from

zoi zoi I'm talking about quotes zoi

because although the si ate the terminating zoi, the first zoi had already
turned it into something else and stopped working. Am I misremember, is that
somehow fixed, or what? (I really hope it is, otherwise requiring multiple
{si}s would be really weird).

Thanks for trying to comprehend all these interactions. I'm just barely able
to keep my head from exploding on many of them.
