There is a problem with all of “%” expansions in bang commands: you can’t use
them (reliably ≡ at all) as there is no way to be sure filename will be passed
as one argument without any modifications (e.g. parameter expansions performed
by shell). Adding “%:E” filename modifier will make it possible to turn
constructs like
:execute '!command '.shellescape(expand('%:r'), 1)
into just
:!command %:r:E
.
