Michael,

may I point you to http://unicode.org/uni2book/ch06.pdf and don't shy away
from the intricacies of double quotes in all the world's languages ;-)

Quotes, in a spreadsheet's text fields, are punctuations in the author's
language and usually not delimiters of some programming language. Using a
spreadsheet for collecting code snippets is not the everyday use case.
