Wouldn't it be better to also have a way to set the parameters using an
indexed property one by one instead of a cmdline?

Because this kind of interpretation issues will continue forever, since shell
handling is not portable. This was
pretty much the reason for the change to array of string in ExecuteProcess
and friends.

In such case, there is always a "safe" fall back.
