Hi,

I created this bug report after finding that my testing copy of my main bib
file was unreadable after being saved by the most recent JabRef beta:
https://sourceforge.net/p/jabref/bugs/1158/

We can prevent the problem by making sure to escape quotes when saving with
quotes as delimiters instead of braces. However, I still sense a risk of
some users getting hit by unforeseen consequences, so I don't like it.

Is there a compelling reason to even support writing with quotes? Both are
equally well-formed BibTeX, and personally I like the braces better. My
suggestion: keep the new formatting, but always use braces as delimiters.
