If a user's opinion counts, I now like the curved quotes (thanks Paul and
others!). The quotes look great! There was initial resistance from my side
as I saw a lot of inconsistencies. But by now, all the inconsistencies that
at least I saw are resolved. Earlier I wanted to switch back to quotes
being displayed as ` and ', but not anymore :).
So I do not mind the quotes being displayed curly by default and that
option still not being a defcustom.
If we see a lot of emacs users unhappy because of this, then may be this is
converted to defcustom in 25.2? Because as Eli said:
