At this point what I think is that maybe we shouldn't be this prescriptive about the use of this feature, given that there have been three different semantic groupings of quotation marks already in this thread: inner/outer, primary/secondary, double/single. Each of these cause subtle variations, and in predefining alternatives we're having to choose one of them, and make tradeoffs. And predefined values will strongly /suggest/ our choice of groupings, limiting the user. I think the best option is to stick to the default (“” ‘’), improve the documentation and let the users interpret what this is (as inner/outer, primary/secondary or double/single, or sth. else) and accordingly exploit it freely. > (I’m still unsure how useful the whole feature would be for users of > layouts that do not include ` or ' or only feature them as dead keys, > but my view of the prevalence of such layouts is necessarily skewed.) -- İ.
