That would be most beneficial!  Maxima does some weird stuff in
converting strings to lists to symbols and vice versa, so it's easy to
get confused.  It also treats symbols as strings in various places.

It would be nice to refactor some of this stuff, but that will have to
wait for some other day (or year).
