Nice, thanks.

Yeah, I knew about those sc_error_... checks, but as you mentioned, they
are heuristics. We also need a way to handle strings we don't want
quoted. I guess we could make a script to more robustly check this
stuff, e.g., by requiring a comment on arguments that shouldn't be
quoted, but it probably isn’t worth the time.
