Hypertalk (the programming language of Apple's Hypercard)
had an interesting way of doing this. There were two string
concatenation operators: a regular one, and a "concatenate
with a space between" operator. Using these, you could
build up strings for output quite nicely.

It helped somewhat that Hypertalk really only had strings
as a data type. A Python version of this operator would
need to be willing to convert either or both operands to
strings.
