I see, I've change the `org-babel-gnuplot-quote-tsv-field' function so
that it will only wrap a value in double quotes if that value actually
needs these wraps (e.g., contains a quote or a space).

With this change your example 3 now works as expected (nice looking
plots by the way).

Are there any use cases which are still not addressed?
