Hi Pierre, I'll be talking to Mike on Zoom later today (5pm UK time), which
you're welcome to join.

Just to confirm, this RFC is about the literal flag, and giving libraries
the ability to use it via the is_literal() function (which I'm glad to hear
peoples support for).

It does not raise any warnings, or affect native / low-level functions. How
the flag can be used in the future, like the dedicated type that someniatko
and Joe have suggested, is part of a larger conversation which I'm looking
forward to having in the near future. And just to put your mind at ease,
I'm very much aware that systems that causes too much noise (false
positives) will simply be switched off, which is no use to anyone.

Craig
