Never mind, I failed to add the continuation prompt in my testing.
Tuples are also broken:

In [9]: >>> a = (1,2,
   ...: ... 3)
  File "<ipython-input-9-4ac29872d3db>", line 2
    ... 3)
    ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Which in a sense is better, because it means our bug is simply that
our stripping logic isn't correctly handling open multiline structures
in-flight.
