It would be great if the matchit plugin (a plugin that ships with vim
but is not enabled by default) could jump to matching single or double
quotation marks. So, for example, if I write the following:
She said, "Hey, what's up?"
and I put my cursor on one quotation mark, matchit should be able to
take me to the other quotation mark when I press the % key. This
should work while editing C files, Java files, Perl files, and
preferably also plain text files.
Please use "Reply to All" when you reply to this so your replies will
go to both the Debian and Vim people and will also be archived at
http://bugs.debian.org.

This isn't really a feasible option as matchit would have no way to know
whether you're on the starting or closing quote. For similar reasons,
this is why Vim's a", a', i", i' text objects only work on the current
line as that narrows, but doesn't eliminate, the possibility of
false-positives.
