R. David Murray added the comment:

If it is a matter of following "the normal rules" about quoting in a place 
where we currently don't do that, I think it would be sensible to add it, but 
IMO it should be the full set of "normal rules".  Presumably shlex provides 
facilities to do that...I haven't looked at the netrc code in quite a while so 
I don't remember how it all fits together.

As for reopening the issue...there was something that was fixed here, so what 
we should do instead is open a new issue with your documentation about current 
reality, a quick summary of this discussion, and a mention of this issue as 
part of the backstory.
