BTW, Org-mode has a very nice optional feature where you don't even
see the ugly bits: when you type "**foo**", the stars disappear and
"foo" is displayed in italics.  If the problem is that some people
find the ` character ugly, perhaps we could have something similar for
our comments and/or docstrings to have ` and ' displayed as the proper
unicode quote marks.

It would be even better if we could have the ' key automatically
balance quotes, much like what happens in modern word processors.
