Or, what I do:

concat [ "(" , str , ")" ]

You're right: my objections to this seem mostly to be matters of taste -- as I think about it, I find fewer and fewer practical reasons for disliking it. I still would prefer it if the proposal were implemented (and I would modify it so brackets weren't mismatched), and I'm still interested in implementing it, if only so I (and others) can do programming projects both ways and see if it actually makes a big difference.
