My feelings are slightly different; I find myself switching back and forth between different languages and the rules are slightly different between those languages that sometimes go slightly more conservative in terms of extra quoting, just so I don't get it wrong. I personally don't see the harm in doing that, but I don't feel super strongly about it. --Ken
