The CSV templates used by KAddressBook can make use of different quotation characters, unfortunately there does not seem to be a GUI for it. One of my programs, kabcclient, a commandline access tool for KDE's addressbook, uses them as well. For example, the templates used here http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/kdereview/kabcclient/doc/examples/letters/ use the pipe character as the delimiter I am afraid though that the Debian package I have linked to from kabcclient webpages (e.g. on kde-apps.org) is way out of date.
