it inserted a quote, so that the semantics was always the same. (You could always go back and delete the quote if you really want evaluation.)
I agree this would be convenient in some cases, but the code should at least make some heuristic attempt to detect whether the insertion point is already in a quote, and avoid inserting the quote in that case. Otherwise, the magically inserted quotes would be too annoying.
