I think the quoting is a good general principle to follow whenever
reporting any string that originates from user input, or from the
target; cut-n-paste errors and twitchy mice can conspire to generate
thoroughly confusing errors if the strings are not delimited somehow. I
could go with either double quotes or single quotes, but as Jan points
out, the general style seems to prefer a pair of single quotes.
