I noticed that strings like ='foo'= or =di"= don't get recognized by
org as code, which is somewhat unfortunate because it forces me to
edit exported HTML by hand. Are there any workarounds for this
behavior?

Hi, Leo. You might try inserting a null character before and after the
quotation marks, as:
=^@'foo'^@=
where:
^@
means CTRL-@, in the usual, text-based notation.

Hi,
this behavior is controlled by the contents of the 3rd element of
org-emphasis-regexp-components.
See this post:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/20915/focus=20922
I've removed \" a while ago and haven't noticed any problems so far.
Cheers,
Viktor

Null character /sort of/ works: it makes org-mode insert the code
delimiters on export, but the presence of null characters breaks
export down the road, at least in my case. This time, I could
intercept the exported text and remove the null characters by hand,
but it might not always be the case.
What org really needs is a stronger verbatim quoting construct. In a
lot of cases, you just want your text to be displayed verbatim, with
no interpretation, period. Near as I can see, there's nothing in org
that can currently do this -- please correct me if I'm wrong. For
instance, things like =[[foo]]= should _not_ undergo further parsing /
be interpreted as links. Same goes for quotes, or virtually anything.
= signs should be allowed provided they are escaped in the usual
manner (=\==). The current behavior is very unsatisfactory.
