typographer's quotes are very hard to get right, and scribus being an app which 
is still under heavy development preferred to concentrate on other topics.

you have to consider that scribus is used all around the world and different 
languages (and even some regional versions of languages) have different rules, 
which may even be somehow complicated. you also have to consider that quotes 
can be nested and that quote signs may also be used as apostrophes.

so, for now, you have to manually set the correct quote for each case...
