I agree. It's not originally my code, but if nobody objects I'll make
the change.

I also noticed the config behaves differently if you do:

options SOMETHING="/woof;/meow"	# A comment

compared to:

options SOMETHING="/woof;/meow"

In one case the value is quoted in the option include file, but not
in the other case. A trap for young players.
