That repeats what we know already. The thing is that we are building
the command as a string for runuser, which wants it as a parameter.

It is an interesting question, I think. Can you make my sample script
work, while still handling $CMD as a string? Some sample input for the
challenge:

$ ./sample.sh ./sample.sh "this is file one" "this is file two" "file
with doublequotes \" in it"

cheers,
