What we have no is ‘this’, 'this' and `this'. What we could add is `this´.

Why just that one, though? There are several more quotes in the relevant Unicode block, why not add all of them?


Indeed, all of them could be added. With two options, then: text-left-quote-style and text-right-quote-style (and two similar options for buffers).


They definitely fit better for this task than ´, which is not even a quote character, and isn't classified as punctuation.


That depends on each one's preferences. And ` is also not a quote character, it's a grave accent; to some at least it might seem natural to use an acute accent to match a grave accent.
