[Flac-dev] [wolfgang@rohdewald.de: Bug#274700: flac: --export-vc-to should quote strings containing spaces]

[Josh Coalson]

that's a nice trick but I don't think it should be integrated
into metaflac (not yet at least).  there are other things that
can appear in comments that will throw this off too (double
quotes, newlines).

this has come up on the vorbis lists too in the past and has
not been resolved as far as I know.
