Comment (by atagar):

 Thanks! This still doesn't have the precision other spec fields do. If you
 replace "quoted strings" with "QuotedString" this would have a very well
 specified meaning...

   https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/control-spec.txt#n90

 Keep in mind though that this means you're saying this have qcontent
 (which is well defined, but I'd need to look up what exactly it means).

 -----

 {{{
 The "SOCKS_USERNAME" and "SOCKS_PASSWORD" fields indicate the credentials
 that were used by a SOCKS client to connect to Tor's SOCKS port and
 initiate this circuit.
 }}}

 Perfect.

 -----

 {{{
 Special characters are escaped.
 }}}

 Again, this leaves some ambiguity. If this conforms with QuotedString
 fields then lets leave it at that instead.
