Description

I am loving the Python module for syntax coloring, It's working like a charm. The only bit that I am missing from the older MagicPython is syntax coloring of string literals (which come in handy when you have a bunch of regex code).
Attaching here 2 snapshot to illustrate the difference between syntax coloring as a default and on string literals.

The older module Magic Python had the ability to recognize syntax in the literals, too, and it would simply use a different palette for the colors.
Would it be possible to have syntax recognition on string literals for the new Python module, too?

Steps to Reproduce

See screenshots attached

Expected behavior:
SQL syntax recognized (and properly colored) in string literals

Actual behavior:
SQL syntax recognized (and properly colored) only in strings, not in string literals

Reproduces how often:
Every time I turn a string into a string literal (eg by pre-pending an r to the """-block
