Research direction

Reproduce the (foo "|bar") case in the REPL and in clojure-mode using Meta-S, then compare the resulting forms. Use the two outputs in the issue to establish the intended splice behavior; done means clojure-mode handles the string case consistently without splicing the surrounding form.
