a method to string objects (assuming we implement f-strings) that just
returns the original, unprocessed string.  If the string was not an
f-string, it just returns self.  The gettext module can be modified, I
think trivially, to use the method instead of the string directly.

- [ ] review all string interpolation (for "injection")
  * [ ] review every '%'
  * [ ] review every ".format()"
  * [ ] review every f-string (AND LOCALS AND GLOBALS)
  * every os.system, os.exec*, subprocess.Popen
  * every unclosed tag
  * every unescaped control character

This would create work we don't need.

Solution: __str_shell_ escapes, adds slashes, and quotes. __str__SQL__ refs
a global list of reserved words.
