What are these simple cases?
CSV fields, pathnames, log messages.
There's a case I missed. CSV often uses double quotes for escape. You can see that in section 2, point 7 of this attempt to standardise them: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4180.txt
To supply the extra semantics you've suggested, quote() must also be enhanced significantly.
I really wasn't suggesting that you support them. Daniel
