I wonder if you'd be interested in changes
to the function that would skip escaping ASCII characters that aren't

about the edge cases carefully yet.
I agree that it would only be a slight variation on that code, and so I
added that case. It will be in the next devel branch push.
Re latest changes in [1], we need to preserve quoting also for any of
the following characters, at least if they are in a bracket
expression:
! - . : = ^
Why not just quote them all the time and not try to determine whether or
not they're part of a bracket expression?
