I very often use sexp-operations like backward-up-list inside strings
(and even across strings, although it's only by luck that it works ;-).
It's very handy when jumping around regexp groups, for example.
Maybe this usage pattern is unusual, I don't know, but I do know that
I would miss it enough to write a little function to recover the "old"
behavior rather than get used to the new behavior.
It should not be hard to preserve a way to do what you want.
