Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Forgot to say: this implementation, in addition to properly handling
 arguments with spaces, supports spaces in the ExecShell command. So having
 something like
 {{{X-TorBrowser-ExecShell=./path\ with\ spaces/executable -o --longopt}}}
 works as expected.

 Also, this implementation quotes its "$1" argument, so that path can also
 have spaces. This is a potential bug in the current implementation, since
 all paths should be quoted.
