Could not create an issue in Jira using CLI when component name contains comma

I am using Jira Command Line interface(v. 3.9.0) to create Jira Issue. Everything works well until there is a comma in component name. Here is an example of parameters I used for createIssue action:

--project "MyProj" --type "MyType" --summary "Some summary" --description "Test desc" --components "Company, Inc."

"Company, Inc" is the single component. But according to the documentation (https://bobswift.atlassian.net/wiki/display/JCLI/Documentation#Documentation-components) Jira expects list of the components separated by commas in the --components parameter. Therefore Jira thinks that "Company, Inc" is 2 components - "Company" and "Inc."

Is there a way to create issue with such component?

EDIT: According to the tips on documentation page (https://bobswift.atlassian.net/wiki/display/JCLI/Tips) values containing a comma must be enclosed in single quotes. However it didn't help too.

According to: https://bobswift.atlassian.net/wiki/display/JCLI/Tips

the comma is a "problmatic" character, but you can provide an alternate character to be used in your commands. For example, by adding this:

–special "# "

to your CLI command, you can then use the hashtag symbol INSTEAD OF the comma in your CLI command.
