@etorreborre> How do you quote arguments with the run command? Say your command is run mymain "my first arg" "my second arg" and you want "my first arg" and "my second arg" to be passed as strings despite the spaces.
@kylegoetz> Best I can tell, it's not possible unless you Text.join with " " and then re parse. That's what I've been doing.
Previous attempt at #3878
Describe the solution you'd like
Devise and implement some quoting mechanism for run.
Also see #2805, #5193, relating to "numbered args" substitution, which we probably don't want at all for run, beyond the first arg that specifies the program to run.
Describe alternatives you've considered
A possible workaround by launching from the command-line, using the shell's treatment of quoted args also doesn't work, at minimum because we can't specify projects there yet, #4253
