Follow-up Comment #1, task #8380 (project cdsware):
Note that (Benoit report):
(gnu_)?getopt strips the arguments from all quotes regardless of how many
they are, e.g. "'test1, test2','test3'" is converted to
"test1, test2,test3" (f.cking alpine line justification) making it impossible
to correctly split the string into collection names.
The only option is to pass the collections list as a string i.e.:
$ my_fantastic_exec -c "'test1','test2'" (which is bad.)

BibIndex --help says:
[...]
Indexing options:
[...]
-c, --collection=c1[,c2] select according to collection
[...]
The code to elaborate the collection parameter is simply using ',' as a
separator regardless if user has used (double) quotes to protect a collection
name that has commas or spaces inside.
A generic solution to interpret such string (maybe to be addedd in textutils)
should be developed and plugged to BibIndex CLI parser (and other tools that
expect list of collections or similar).
