This will break aliases such as
 alias kmtest "McCarthy, Kevin" <ke...@example.com>

The double quotes are stripped out of the returned token without
MUTT_TOKEN_QUOTE.

Yes, that's the whole idea, isn't it? As said somewhere up thread,
you'll need to use single quotes in such a case.

alias kmtest '"McCarthy, Kevin" <ke...@example.com>'

This is the same behavior as mailx shows and breaks current mutt
behavior. That's why it should be an option.

Okay. I saw that but thought you had later concluded there were no side effects. My mistake :).
