It would be reasonable to come up with an interface for that, perhaps listing 
the quoting styles and options. It's not clear that the UI should list languages 
too -- although that might help, the controversies might be more trouble than 
they're worth.

Out of curiosity, in good-quality Hebrew text do you prefer top-level quoting 
with " and " or with „ and “? (I'm writing left-to-right here; of course the 
quotes are reversed when displaying right-to-left.)
