I'm a bit skeptical of using URL encoding to work around embedded
spaces. I believe in Emily's config-based hooks series, she wrote an
argument parser to pull repeated arguments into a strvec, could you do
something like that here?

I'm sympathetic to the idea that since this is an internal-only flag, we
can be a bit weird with the argument format, though.

We tend to prefer quote.c::sq_quote*() suite of quoting; does this
codepath have very different constraints that require different
encoding?

Thanks.
