No thank you. This sounds dangerously like the windows command shell quoting 
rules. At first clance they appear to "just work", however when you actually 
try to figure out what's going on it gets horribly messy. For example UNC 
paths (which start with a double backslash) come out really weird with your 
suggestion.
