[issue35168] shlex punctuation_chars inconsistency

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettinger at gmail.com> added the comment:

It makes sense to me that information used in an expensive one-time setup should be specified in advance where other parameters that are more easily changed are specified downstream.  The API reflects the a sensible way to use the tool.  Making it to easy to change later increases the risk of misuse.
