You can rebind it, you know. Anyway, let's assume the existence of a new
bindable command that (shell) quotes the (shell? readline?) words on a
line. Let's assume that this new command is bound to some sequence like
\C-xq. Then you can use a macro to create something like what you want:
"\M-\C-w":"\M-\C-e\C-xq"
with each command being separately undoable.
Assuming you want M-C-e, C-xq, Return to be a equivalent to a verbose Return.
I don't think it is doable that way, please consider:
Well, that's probably true. It argues for a separate bindable
shell-expand-and-requote command so the readline command can get access
to the still-quoted unsplit shell words and quote them appropriately.
All of it can still be individually undoable.
