No, that doesn't work at all.
"sq_expand()" tries to protect things inside single quotes. That's a
totally different problem (and btw, it does so badly: it doesn't quote '\'
for example).
For a shell command line, there are _tons_ of special characters that you
mustn't pass through. Things like ';', '<', '>', '&' all have magic
meaning and are not valid in the destination name. Not to mention just
simple whitespace.
