Suggestion for build

[SWSDEV]

It would be useful, especially for new users to the VAD, to check for invalid string literals during the build. then semantic error seems to be one of the most common errors as you build stuff.

We understand that it is a common error, but it's a bit difficult to detect that kind of errors because an expression could be referencing javascript variables, etc.

What we're planning to do is adding another type of expression: string literal. So, when you open the Expression Editor, you can select "String literal" and then anything you type there will be escaped into a Javascript string. That way you don't need to escape special characters, etc. This is something planned to be added very soon.

Thanks again for your feedback and suggestions.
