I agree, but it being a defconst, it comes with the message "This declares that neither programs nor users should ever change the value." > By the way, it is a defconst because of the keys, which shouldn't be > altered, not the values. If that's really a the concern then why not write a function to alter values in a safe manner? Alternatively, it could stay defconst, and there could be a org-export-smart-quotes-alist-user, defaulting to nil but taking precedence over its non-user counterpart. If people specify a wrong language code it'll just be ignored. –Rasmus -- When in doubt, do it!
