Comment (by atagar):

 > Is there a function in Tor that encodes QuotedStrings?

 We have QuotedStrings all throughout the control-spec. What do we do for
 all the other instances?

 > If we change in 0.2.6.4, will we break old TBB versions that rely on the
 old behavior?

 I filed this ticket right after the attribute was added to the spec. I'm a
 tad surprised it's already in a release.
