These two characters are actually customizable in the latest Texinfo
(although I doubt that many people use that feature). So perhaps
there should be a defcustom for them, so users could use other
characters if needed.

Why do you confine U+2018 and U+2019 to Emacs manuals? AFAIK, they
will appear in any manual that has its @documentencoding set to UTF-8.
So I think you can see that in any manual any time.
Thanks.
