Uh, no?
\slanted "one two three"
should likely give the same result as
\slanted \line { "one" "two" "three" }
but
\slanted { "one" "two" "three" }
is exactly equivalent to
{ \slanted "one" \slanted "two" \slanted "three" }
and is connected with unslanted spaces.

This _is_ separately applying \slanted to "one", "two", and "three".
