But it is not impossible to tell apart '"--domain"' (one arg) and
'"--domain" ""' (two args).  If you have trailing whitespace, then tack
on an empty argument.

Yes, the difference between one argument and two is significant - the
completion should always be done on the last argument, but the last
argument needs to be the empty string if it is not in the middle of a word.
