Are delimit() and undelimit() suitable names for the functions?
I don't care much for "undelimit" but I can't think of anything better as "delimit" seems exactly suited to the other operation.
I'm not convinced by delimit. The dictionary definition is to do with marking a boundary so it applies to the ""-case but not \ and others. What about escape\unescape or encode\decode. The URL specifications call this type of operation encoding [1] but I think escaping is a more common and less ambiguous name.
