Typographical quotes seem to fail when used with 2-letter or 1-letter words. For example ``abc'' renders as “abc” (ok), but ``ab'' renders as ‘`ab'’, and ``a'' renders as ‘`a'’. (Typographical single quote plus ascii chars instead of typographical double quotes. If you see everything all right, it has been fixed. :-) ) I have verified this only in forum posts.
I have reported this bug back in March, but never received any feedback.
In addition to the bug reported above, there is a bug that two consecutive lines of “German-style” quotations are rendered wrong. (A single line of German-style quotation will render ok).
This code…
,,quotation''
,,quotation''
,,quotation''
… renders like this:
„quotation”
quotation''
quotation''
Here is bug number 3 regarding all three styles of typographical quotations: whenever the quoted text has a leading or trailing blank, typographical quotations are not rendered properly.
This code …
``No leading/trailing blank''
`` With leading blank''
``With trailing blank ''
`No leading/trailing blank'
` With leading blank'
`With trailing blank '
,,No leading/trailing blank''
,, With leading blank''
,,With trailing blank ''
… renders like this:
“No leading/trailing blank”
‘` With leading blank'’
‘`With trailing blank '’
‘No leading/trailing blank’
` With leading blank'
`With trailing blank '
„No leading/trailing blank”
,, With leading blank''
,,With trailing blank ''
Sorry we have not fixed this one before. Have a look now, it renders much better:
“No leading/trailing blank”
“ With leading blank”
“With trailing blank ”
‘No leading/trailing blank’
‘ With leading blank’
‘With trailing blank ’
No leading/trailing blank''
With leading blank''
„With trailing blank ”
It works with single letters too: ‘a’.
BTW: you are a real bug-squashers! Thank you very very much!!!

Michal, thanks!
Everything's fixed except for the problem with the two consecutive lines of German-style quotations:
German-style quoted''
German-style quoted''
A sentence containing two typographically quoted words (with the second one in parenthesis) does not render correctly.
A typographical quote'' followed by another on in (parenthesis'').
This is the code used:
A typographical ,,quote'' followed by another on in (,,parenthesis'').
