I think that I kept some of the messages around. The outcome was that what different people regarded as the basic things that quotes should do was difficult to implement while keeping the system coherent. My proposal at the time was basically to have two kind of quotes (typically outer and nested, for example) that would have a sensible default for each language, and to bind this to two different keys.

We can also steal the logic (which is probably something that fits many people) and reimplement it in LyX terms. I am not sure how robust the use of active characters is for example. And LyX should still be able to output ``normal quoting''. Anyway InsetQuote badly needs a redesign. JMarc
