By the way, the user might think he got it wright when there is plenty
of output,
$ systemctl show 'XXXXXdev-disk-by\x2dpartuuid-000ed2c3\x2d05.device'|wc
34 35 848
But in fact he can get even more...
$ systemctl show 'dev-disk-by\x2dpartuuid-000ed2c3\x2d05.device'|wc
40 51 1219

Maybe you could report that for me. I don't know about any of that.
Anyway I don't understand what all the escaping dash is about.
If it is like shell options, then only require escaping it after a
space.
If it is a math operator, then require $(( )) like shell or something.
Else it is just like having to write %2D in URLs, when in the end it
shouldn't matter.
