Just to rephrase what is puzzling me:
When I understood that sshfs-win had a bug when an argument contained
diacritics, I expected many possible issues : mismatching codepages,
poorly-handled encodings, implicit conversions between UTF-8 and
Latin-1, etc., which would make some sense.
But I definitely did not expect that "double quotes were not properly
removed by the runtime", which (imho) does not make any sense.

I hope I have managed to rephrase my problem clearly :D
Thanks to all of you for your help!
