I wonder why these strings are marked as translatable, because those are
the ASCII characters that you type in on the keyboard that shall be
replaced with proper typographic quotes if enabled. IMHO they should
never be translated.

Just used in the menu.

The actual replacement is determined from the locale data that is not
subject to pootle. In this case
i18npool/source/localedata/data/ca_ES.xml Markers QuotationStart/End and
DoubleQuotationStart/End, or see
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/i18npool/source/localedata/data/ca_ES.xml#n44

You could create a patch and submit it to gerrit or mail it to me. Or
tell me which characters are to be used and I'll change it.
