Wouldn't it be wonderful if Django automatically FIXED the "smart" quotes
injected by various Windows/OSX apps? Not sure if this is possible without
trying to work out what char. encoding the website wants, but maybe this
can be done by the validator framework?
There's a Universal Encoding Detector in python at
http://chardet.feedparser.org/, or it might be possible to just
search'n'replace \x91, \x92 (single left&right quotes), \x93, \x94 (double
left&right quotes), \x96 & \x97 ( emdashes ) and \x85 ( ellipsis ).
