Hi Alan,

Is that a real problem?

As long as curly quotes are relegated to displayed messages and Help 
buffers, you'll never need to type them as input for external tools.

And as for isearch, in the rare cases where looking for a beginning of a 
symbol reference is important, you could input \_< or \_> instead.

That may be a bit worse than just typing `, but if we do highlighting 
with faces (which I think is a good idea to transition to), searching 
for ` won't work either.
