Hmm, right, it should be possible to fix the crossing quotes in the
above case, but even the simpler

    <a>"oops" 'oops'</a>

shows the same highlighting.  This seems directly due to "we're now
careful to leave alone any pair of quotes that doesn't hold a < or >
char".  So uh, Stefan, how was that supposed to work exactly?
