I'm not sure forcing a style attribute is a good idea

The style IMO should be whatever string_1 is plus bold. Users who make string_1 use bold is not something we should worry about, it's not sensible. Adding a named style that defaults to string_1,bold would work if you prefer the override in a central place so weird bold string themes can override it with something distinctive ;-)

Also bold specifically apparently sometimes cause issues with some poor fonts

We already use it for keywords. Those users should fix their fonts.

I'm pretty sure it was called string_2 to remain generic

C file type uses it for raw strings. Escape sequences are not raw strings so should be styled differently ideally.
