Hello Nicolas,

Thank you for the explanation.  Just to make sure I understand: it
sounds like '...' and "..." should be thought of as markup, with "..."
always used for outer quotes and '...' for inner quotes in org-mode
source files.

However, I could customize `org-export-smart-quotes-alist' to export
outer quotes using single quote marks and inner quotes using double
quote marks.

Is that about right?

Thanks,

Jonathan
