Dear coreutils developers
Thank you very much for your efferts in trying to provide and maintain
fine tools that help millions or billions of users every day.
I'm one who appreciates that (and I try to do something similar as well).
Still, sometimes there have been changes introduced over the years,
that may have been well intended, but still do more harm than good,
even if not visible to everyone at first glance.
Introduction of quotation marks placed selectively around ls output
containing spaces is an example for that.
I'd like to encourage you to make this behaviour an option again,
and put the default setting back to leaving these quotation marks away.
Whoever wants them, can activate them - and who doesn't, won't be
bothered by an inconsistent and somewhat annoying behavior that disrupts
the visual processing of every single ls output where it becomes apparent -
and requires the addition of an option line for every single existing(!)
.bashrc file on systems where the "new" behaviour is not desired.
And, given the change was introduced in 2016, and re-introduced in 2019,
and annoyance is still caused in 2021 - well, whenever it has been fixed
in existing systems, the problem still turns up in each and every newly
set up system since then, in a delayed manner because naturally ls output
with spaces is not the first thing that will appear, and therefore requires
a lookup of its cause and remedy, and then the manual addition of fixes to
each already existing user account set up until then.
As somebody put it on publicly available pages:
"When this many people consider a thing a bug, then it's a bug whether maintainers disagree or not."
Quoted from:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/258679/why-is-ls-suddenly-wrapping-items-with-spaces-in-single-quotes/262162#262162
The bigger problem is, that it's not only ls which is affected like that.
Similar changes, instead, occur in more and more places - in browsers, in
the X11 environment (now even losing it's network transparency etc.), in the
design of GUIs with inconsistant apprance and unrecognizable operating elements
and so on. It's like if somebody has a bad idea, they're not held back by
traditions or established standards or knowledgeable people around them any more -
but on the contrary, that bad idea is immediately implemented, distributed, and
then: even copied over and over by other people who think things must constantly
be "renewed" even if the existing version was perfect and simple, and "new" usually
means "more complex" and "obviously worse".
Anyway. Thank you very much for consideration of this message,
including its philosophical background, and kind regards!
Joerg

By that standard it'll be a bug no matter what the maintainers do, since

In the meantime you can avoid the issue yourself by using this:
alias ls="ls -N"
in your .profile or whatever.
