-f 'publisher:some publisher with spaces'

And "calibredb add" will accept -f as well? Time to give that a try.
Sadly,

calibredb add -f 'publisher:some publisher' libraryspec myfile.cbz

Fails with

calibredb.exe: error: no such option -f

Still, I'm down to two calls, so it's still good. Thank you again.
