Escaping for system()

Hello!

I have a plugin which uses `system(command, input)` to run some external commands. There seem to be a few escaping problems (mostly on Windows).

So I did some research and wrote it all up here: https://github.com/airblade/vim-system-escape

In a nutshell I'd like to write a VimL `shellescape(str)` function which gets the escaping right for all Vim versions greater than, say, 7.0. I.e. implement the current built-in escaping logic in VimL.

And maybe have a similar function which escapes the whole command passed to `system(command)`...though I'm not sure yet whether that's necessary.

Anyway, I'd be most grateful for suggestions and/or feedback on my notes at the link above.

Thanks in advance,

Andy Stewart
