The problem is how to highlight strings only in code samples
because in other places highlighting "..." makes no sense.
Look for example in the node (info "(emacs) Package Keywords"):
Most optional features in Emacs are grouped into "packages".
Should "packages" be highlighted as a string. Of course not.
There is no additional emphasis on quotations in books.
