As I told you already, we can. :)

You may think you are, but so far you haven't done so. What you did
suggest is:
- incompatible with the intended use of SHELL_QUOTE (only applied to
automatic variables),
- incompatible with the intended use of SHELL_QUOTE again (not only
in recipes),
- very vaguely specified (what's that 3rd parameter etc.?).
If you suggest a new feature, you should at least describe it
properly. Also give a clear use case; not some vague words and
syntax fragments, but at least a complete, though of course
hypothetical, example with a makefile, expected output and
everything relevant.
