After all, electric quote is for human-language text, which normally doesn't contain backslashes. At least in the context of Emacs Lisp strings, I'd expect "foo \"foo\"" here, i.e., ASCII quotes. The non-ASCII quotes don't need to be escaped, so presumably escaping means that the user intended to type an ASCII quote.
