Description:
------------
Consider following example:



class Example

{

    const LONG_SENTENCE = "This sentence is really very very very very
very very very very very very very very very very very very very very
very very very very very very long";



};



It is not possible to breakup the assigned string using dot operator,
and php also doesn't support neither c-like constant string
concatenation ("really " "very" -> "really very") or c-like line
continuation (end the line with backslash). 



This is really annoying, cause I end with the code containing extra long
lines and I can't split them, making code unreadable without scrolling.
