IMO that kills this simple form of the idea, since hard-coding paths
is a bad idea in many many programs, and paths are naturally derived
from user input in a host of others.  It becomes an attractive
nuisance.

How about generalizing f-strings, or perhaps giving p-strings (some
of) the power of f-strings?
