In my experiments with luatex, there's one thing that may be
surprising for many users: we have come to expect that the characters
` and ' in our input files map to single left and single right
quotation marks. luatex just typesets them "verbatim," so to speak.
It converts the combination `` and '' to double quotation marks,
however. So my question: wouldn't it make sense to convert the single
marks as well? (And please don't tell me "Oh but you should use \quote
{} instead of ` '." I know that, but I guess that many users have
hundreds of old documents where they use `'. Moreover, ' also creates
the apostrophe character, which cannot be avoided.)
Best
Thomas
