Follow-up from WebKit/WebKit#73099 it seems that Blink and Gecko default to English-style curly quotes, should we encode that into the spec?

    The CLDR root locale defines these quotation marks:

    Purpose Character Unicode
    Opening primary “ U+201C
    Closing primary ” U+201D
    Opening secondary ‘ U+2018
    Closing secondary ’ U+2019

    I suspect that's why browsers are doing it. If we're happy with that, then we should adopt it into the spec.
