right. I thought about it a month ago because in czech typo we can use
national quotations or french style (depending on the graphics feeling,
text content etc.).

There is one more thing to explain - when you work with texts delivered
to you by writers (usually in DOC :-/) you'll export it into plaintext (as I do)
so then every quotation mark is '"' (inch mark) and it's a must to convert
it into right quotation mark.

I would like to ask developers if they will implement some code related to
this problem or may I write this - I've got some ideas how to solve it.
