Hi there,
given a macro like
#+MACRO: foo (eval (message "%s" $1))
I need to call {{{foo("text")}}} with Org mode 9.1.14-9-g131531-elpa.
On the master branch, that call will include the quotation marks as
part of the string, so I need to call {{{foo(text)}}} (documented in
the manual, but I didn’t notice that until now).
Could the master branch offer backward compatible functionality,
please? I’m thinking about checking for and removing leading and
trailing quotation marks...
Best wishes
Jens

A simple function replacing such occurrences should be easy to write.
I suggest to do that.
It is in "Incompatible changes" for a reason :)
