Hi Taco,
if you change anything though, please inform the TeX Live team in
advance. We probably have to adapt our scripts then. The scripts
already provide a function:
don't worry changes in these mechanism will never show up in stable
versions unannounced as it will likely influence many; of course, as
long as luatex functionality is not declared frozen we take the freedom
to change things, but in this case the fact that texlua is used for
scripts in tex distributions asks for extra care
as far as i can see the main problem is *not* in the interface, it's
just that the underlying windows function cannot deal with spaces in the
program location specification and that (at some point) probably be
solved in a compatible way
