The problem is that the quotes enclosing the option are considered to be part of the value itself. The real bug here is that we don't support leading or trailing whitespace, which could be considered a feature, not a bug. We'd need to understand quotes in order to do that. As it is, quotes are just characters after the = sign, nothing more.
I'll mark this as a documentation bug and we can fix it in the man page that applies to option parsing.
