It's more a question of what works than what is right or wrong.  Setting the width so that a quote prefix can be added will assure us that older DOS-think abandonware doesn't run over it's 79 character limit for displayed line lengths makes this quoting method superior, with or without spaces an the end.  Leaving them in will make this a lossless method of quoting.

Life is good,
Maurice
