'bzr rm' leaves directories behind?

Hi,

I submitted a bundle incorporating your (Robert and Martins) requests.

I find it annoying to quote every single parameter for black box tests.
I think it should ALWAYS be splitting.
In the above case, the test should rather be
"bzr rm file\ with\ spaces" or
"bzr rm 'file with spaces'" or
'bzr rm "file with spaces"'
which my `run_bzr_captured` is catering for since it uses shlex,
this is constent with how it is used from the commandline.
My `run_bzr_captured` only splits if you give it a single string,
so it doesn't break existing tests.

Thats just what I think.

marius
