I'm currently using a custom filter for SmartyPants, to get beautiful 
typography, via RubyPants (https://github.com/jmcnevin/rubypants).

So currently I write code like this in the templates:

%p
  :smarty
    My awesome text -- with lazy typography. "Don't quote this", he said.

And it will output something like:

<p>My awesome text — with lazy typography. “Don’t quote this”, he said.</p>

What I really want is for *all* the text of all HTML nodes to run through 
this filter, so I could just write:

%p
  My awesome text -- with lazy typography. "Don't quote this", he said.

How possibly does this seem? Any ideas for how to hook into all text for 
HTML nodes?

Couple thoughts:

- For safety, it would seem best to run through this filter *before* any 
escaping took place.
- I'd obviously want to benchmark performance impact.

Before I dive in and try a bunch of stupid things and nasty hacks, curious 
if anybody knows of a good way to approach this.

Any thoughts much appreciated!
