That paradigm is crippled with respect to FOREACH and LIST style
processing.  I can't really see everyone on the CMake script side of
things doing it one way, and the Lua side of things doing it another
way.  Plus it doesn't help for strings within strings.

I'm starting to realize that general purpose programming languages
don't care about ease of string entry.  Whereas shell / make / build
tools have a history of making strings easy at the expense of other
programming constructs.
