Your idea
Request for either (1) A native plugin to automatically convert straight quotes in the score (single and double) to curly (smart) quotes. This would work on all text objects including lyrics attached to notes; or (2) a global option (like LibreOffice) so that quotes (single and double) typed in from the keyboard are automatically entered as the curly variety.
Note: The current "Curly Quotes" plugin does not work, but crashes the program
Problem to be solved
The ability to convert the standard keyboard straight quotes to the curly (smart) variety is essential for professional printed output. Currently you can only do this by using the special characters dialog, or pasting in from an external character map.
