[development] Be careful with the description value in the info files

I have noticed that several packages include info file descriptions 
that contain characters other than alphanumeric values.  When you do 
this you need to quote the string.  If you need to use " in the string 
then you need to use the " value to display the " character.

For example:
description = "This is my "crazy at email.com" email address"

Will display correctly while
description = This is my "crazy at email.com" address

will cause Drupal to display an error when going to the modules menu.
