In some old documents. In newer documents I use \quote and \quotation. Then there are documents that need to move back and forth between latex and context but for them I can easily define appropriate macros in latex.
To be honest: I never had the slightest idea how to get proper (Slovenian, "lower nine double quote") quotation marks in LaTeX (or what's the suggested way to do it :). That's why I now use \def\quotation#1{...} in LaTeX as well (in case I need to fix other people's stuff).
Some ligatures are handy indeed: -- -> endash --- -> emdash
I use them all the time. Even though the utf encoded values can work here, my editor (vim) using fixed width fonts, so it is easy to miss the difference between hypehn, endash, and emdash (in the markup). So, I would prefer them to be present.
' -> right single quote (I'm, isn't etc.)
I can automate the conversion of ' to the corresponding utf character inside vim, so this is not really essential. However, IMO this should not change.
Sure. Those three replacements/ligatures were not under a question. They should stay, IMO. Mojca
