Comment (by github@…):

 IIUC, you are suggesting that clients should not worry about shell
 metacharacters because !MythSystem is responsible to do the escaping. So
 that means that if this issue is not going to be fixed, then issue #10680
 ought to be addressed. The current situation is insecure, because command-
 line arguments are not getting escaped correctly.
