 gst-launch 'foo ! bar' causes the following string to be parsed: foo\ !\
 bar.  OTOH, gst-launch foo \! bar, parses the string 'foo ! bar'.
   Conclusion, gst-launch joins all argv's with a single space, but spaces
 inside each arg are escaped.  This plain wrong!  Please remove the
 backslashes thing!

+This is actually how it's supposed to work. You are not supposed to
+put quotes around your pipelines.
+The idea behind this decision is that the look of the pipeline on the
+command line should be as close to what is parsed in the end.
+
+Quoting should only be used for properties with gst-launch.
