Since I found ConTeXt (did only 1 LaTeX project before), I’m using  
\quote/\quotation

IMO we are allowed to force ConTeXt users to use that or proper  
characters.

+1 from me, there seems to be no alternative if your keyboard mapping  
doesn’t allow to input such directly.

(Even if I like to encourage people to write their own enhanced  
keymaps if theirs doesn’t contain what they need – my one gives me  
all European characters except Cyrillic ’cause I don’t need it...)
