Could you add handling of quoted strings?
And most importantly, document all of this in "(org)var".
Here is a merged dscription:

If a value starts with one of ('` it is read as an emacs lisp sexp.
If it starts with " then it's read as a quoted string: start/end quotes are 
stripped, \" and \\ are unescaped
   (this is useful for embedding leading/trailing whitespace in strings).
If it looks like a number, it's read as a number.
Else it's read as a literal string, without any quotation or escaping.
(Please note that | in tables is always interpreted as column separator and 
currently there is no way to quote it)
