There are cases when it does make sense: unprintable characters.
15:25 < ansgar> Now, 'new'$'\t''line' could also be $'new\tline' or
new\tline. But any of these is better than new?line
with which I do agree. Thus, the handling of unprintables could use some
improvement (although '$'\t'' is too long).
I don't think mangling filenames with spaces is acceptable, though.
