And to include a double quote in a field, quote the field and
double the double-quote.

Another quirk is that Excel allows newlines in a quoted field,
which causes problems for naive parsers that split the input
into lines first and then analyse it into fields. (A particular
non-Python one I use professionally is guilty of this...)
