Well, I think this isn't too bad, we could devise a simple escaping scheme to cover this. For example, if we use "--" as separator, then we could tell people to escape this as "\--" (which on the shell would become "\\--") if they actually want it included in the command line... I much prefer a syntax like this over reading things from arbitrary files I must say...
