> There are potential issues with unescaping operation parameter values and command argument values that will be used as operation request parameter values.
> The culprit is that these values are parsed twice: first, with the general command line parser and the second time with the value type parser (which depends on the type of the value: could be list, property list, DMR, etc). Both parsers support and may perform unescaping. Which may lead to confusions and issues like WFLY-161 or WFLY-1791 and then confusing conditions in the code.
> The goal of this task is to not unescape parameter/argument values on the first parsing and leave it to the value type parsers. This concerns *only* parameter and argument value parsing, parsing of the other parts of operation requests and commands will remain as it is.
