I noticed you went with "fullquote" for the completion option name and it
occurs to me that this might be a bit confusing for users because of the
existing "complete_fullquote" shell option.

Maybe just "quote" would work? I don't mean to bikeshed this but wanted to
mention the potential overlap.

I don't like `quote' (too ambiguous; leads to the inevitable questions of
whether it means to quote anything at all) or `allquote' (all what?). I
don't think `fullquote' is perfect, either. Maybe `quoteall' (same
objection) or `quoteallwords' (starting to get a bit unwieldy).
