Please stop inserting curly quotes into doc strings in Emacs sources.

I would also ask to remove the ones already inserted.

And make substitute-command-keys, format-message, etc (any other functions which deal with quoting now) *not* translate the curly quotes in their inputs, nor highlight symbols surrounded with curly quotes in docstring sources. In order to reduce the temptation to re-introduce them, accidentally or on purpose.
