But yeah... having "quote" read out does still seem undesired.
Aren't the aural style sheet or something that can be used to get
rid of that?
Shouldn't putting "quotes: none none" on the <q> element be enough to
get the screen readers to NOT say "quote" at the beginning and the
end?
As in...
<q style="quotes: none none;">...<q>
I think that noone has actually implemented aural CSS in any of the
major screenreaders. Mind you, screenreaders don't generally read out
"quote" for the <q> tag either. Have a look at this:

For what it's worth, it seems reasonable to me that a still image, or
short clip, could be marked up as a quote from a larger film. But the
original HTML spec only considers quoting excerpts from written
text, not excerpts from audio or video as well. I don't know if
there's any practical value in using <q> like this, since <q> isn't
consistently implemented across web browsers.
