A programming editor shouldn't mangle your quotes, and a word processor sucks for editing code anyway, so I'd rule those out. When does an operating system change your quotes? It's really just mail and web where these kinds of issues happen. Any web site that's actually designed for code is, like a programmer's editor, going to be quote-safe; and it's not hard to configure a mail client to not mess with you. How strong is this use-case, really?
