The choice of delimiter was the result of a long discussion of the WG and I doubt they'll look forward to reopen it. In case you are interested in how we came to the backticks-syntax, a good starting point is where Michael Kay suggested chevrons[1], and read all following mail in that and related discussions (some proposals can be found in previous mails as well).
