There are various other string literal forms [1] where you don't need to escape double quotes:

AlternateWysiwygString - backticks as delimiters:
`foo "-", "" bar`

DelimitedString - can use delimiters of choice, here parentheses:
q"(foo "-", "" bar)"

TokenString - for D code, probably not a good choice here, but works:
q{foo "-", "" bar}

Of course, as they're all delimiter based, there will always something you can't put into the string verbatim.
