Would you consider a patch for the case where user _quote_ the options
so that cupsParseOptions() would not separate out the options as in
the case below ...

# date | lpr -Pprinter1 -o"\"not1 to2 be3 sorted4\""


I want just the "string" (not1 to2 be3 sorted4) that I pass in to lpr.
How can I achieve that?

Thanks,
Jeff
