strange, I always put quote marks, as I see them as totally necessary. Not in the browser, obviously, but in my mind. It helps me recording those are strings, not variables. I made too many mistakes in the likes of

    var foo = "bar";
    var baz = {
        foo: "qux"
    };

This bites especially often if you are steadily switching between JavaScript and a server-side language where that code actually does what you expect (e.g. Python).

I assume you mean you mistakenly expect baz to equal:

    {
        bar: "qux"
    }
?

Don't you use syntax highlighting? I can't imagine this ever being an issue...
