you might want to check if pass="$3" works for "strange" passwords too (like
"abcde" (including the ") or abc=dc) - it didn't in our internal tests.
I have been discussing this problem in more detail with ph10@ already and he
agreed to some respect that pass=${quote:$3} is "more" correct in this case
although I'm still a not really convinced . . .
