      A user can specify something in editor that does contain multiple parts (eg. EDITOR='nano -cA').

      We could spawn the editor using a shell by default – there is an option for that in the Node.js child_process.

      So we should support:

      EDITOR=code
      EDITOR=C:\Program Files\Editor\editor.exe
      EDITOR=nano -cA

      and since we cannot easily distinguish between the semantics of the spaces between cases 2 and 3, we will need the OS shell to do that for us.
