Is this really needed to be a separate step? If we update this
function to
- lose local argv[] array;
- instead use the embedded filter.args
i.e. something like the attached, such a "modern" code that uses
child_process .args would not require further changes when the
run-command API is streamlined by the remainder of the series, no?
IOW, if can arrange this step to be trivially and obviously correct
so that it can go in without fixing any bugs (if exists) in the main
part of the series, and the API update would not require such code
that already uses cp.args not cp.argv, that would be much easier to
grok. With this "this is half a change in preparation", reviewers
need to keep this promise in their heads that argv[] will be then
removed from the function.
