I'd much rather have a complete and correct translation, and have WP
do all the tedious regexp work, rather than leave these fields

To me this is a WP bug, and as such it should be corrected.

Since 2.8, we translators can adapt the curly quotes to the local
usage. This is great, but there seems to be an issue in some case.
In fr_FR, we applied the necessary entities in order to respect French
typographical rules: there has to be a space between the quote word
and the quote.
#. translators: opening curly quote
#: wp-includes/formatting.php:37
msgctxt "opening curly quote"
msgid "“"
msgstr "« "
#. translators: closing curly quote
#: wp-includes/formatting.php:39
msgctxt "closing curly quote"
msgid "”"
msgstr " »"
It works great... except when the quoted section combines these two facts:
- it also serves entirely as (or ends with) a link ;
- it is immediately followed by punctuation.
Here is a sample post on my trunk test-blog (2.9-rare, with latest 2.8
PO/MO).
I'm guessing I should file a ticket in Trac for this bug, but maybe
it's not actually a bug, so if anyone here knows better...
This is just a wild proposition and I doubt it will be implemented, but one
idea is to keep the regular quotation marks (' " ') in the translation files
and then have a separate file parse them (i.e. eg. make them into curly
quotes using a regexp).

The point is to avoid the use of “ and ”, so translators
could simply use the " symbol instead, and a script would parse that to
a "start" and "end" string of their choice, i.e. "some text" would be
replaced with [starting " replacement]some text[ending " replacement],
but that could just be me wanting to automate everything possible. It
might be worth considering, though.
