> What about contact (de-)bounce ?

Fortunately contact bounce works itself out automatically in quadrature
decoding.  In theory, only one line at a time can bounce, so it looks like
temporary jitter between two adjacent x4 quadrature states.

That said, it is a good idea to apply a little analog filtering to remove
the frequencies you know are higher that what the encoder can produce in
your application.
