It makes it much easier, yeah (but it would also be nice to be able to
tell darcs "I know what I'm doing" when you just want to send a patch or
two for discussion).

I agree. We need some sort of quoting for when arguments have spaces in,
right? So how about we only allow " and allow anything to be escaped
anywhere with \? I think anything else would be, overall, more
confusing and not much more helpful.
