BTW, Org-mode has a very nice optional feature where you don't even see the ugly bits: when you type "**foo**", the stars disappear and "foo" is displayed in italics. If the problem is that some people find the ` character ugly, perhaps we could have something similar for our comments and/or docstrings to have ` and ' displayed as the proper unicode quote marks. It would be even better if we could have the ' key automatically balance quotes, much like what happens in modern word processors.
