Descripción

I know a similar issue has been mentioned in #222 (which should have been labelled as Duplicated rather than a misleadingly Closed) , #226, and its root cause was well-explained in #168.

It is still worth to point out that, this issue can be much more easier to hit, thus much more severe than those somewhat contrived scenarios described in #222 and #168 (which was triggered by mismatching default parameters and/or typo).

```python
# This is part of an CRUD app
def add(name):
print("Record %s has been added into database" % name)

if __name__ == "__main__":
fire.Fire()
```

My end user (or me) could easily run it with `$python my_app.py add John Doe` (forgot to add quotation marks) and then a record `"John"` would have been added into database while the end user saw a command-line error. At that point, it is not just about issuing the right command, the end user need to clean up the messed-up database.

Although a decorator workaround was mentioned in #168, do you think it is better to do it the other way around, i.e. make such "strict mode" (#226) the default behavior, and let developer to chain commands if they really want to? I bet not many developer know and anticipate the command chaining behavior.

Línea de trabajo

The issue names no source file or test; start at the fire.Fire() command-line entry point and reproduce the unquoted-argument example with the provided CRUD function. Done means an invalid command-line invocation performs no application action by default, while the intended command-chaining behavior remains an explicit choice.
