Follow-up Comment #3, bug #62691 (project groff):
[comment #2 comment #2:]
> Would this be a new .tr-like request that would define per-environment
character translations, or are you looking to alter the behavior of the
existing (three) .tr(s)? 'Cause I can see how someone might be dismayed by
the results in your example, but I can also see how someone might want the
translation to be global. Consider a user who finds \[oq] and \[cq] both
clunky to type and ugly in text, and also knows they'll never use curly braces
in their document. They'd likely want a mapping of the latter to the former
to apply everywhere.

It is a distinction I am considering creating. `char` mappings would be
global, `tr` mappings would be per-environment.
