Is it possible to force this in tandem? Ie. when one of the keys
has to be quoted, the other is always quoted also? Because I’d
hate to see this:
wanted: elbow
found: 'elbow '
For simple cases like this one it’s livable, but if the data gets
more complex, then comparing a raw string with a quoted one will
unnecessarily sprain people’s brains.
