Hi Achim,

I was wondering how it would behave if the string that is put into a
variable contains newlines, backslashes and other things that bash (and
other shells) treats specially. The trick with cat and BABEL_TABLE is
resistant to this. As in many cases (when I use it at least) the variable
come from other parts of the org file and are computed through another
language (python in my case) I have such cases that would break.

Also, I think the test coverage for such things is limited for ob-shell.el
in the org test suite.
We should probably add some test cases for this, and then make sure it
works with your implementation as well.
