I'm not exactly sure what you mean here.  All my documents are in
English, so I rarely use babel.  But I do want my quotes to look
correct.  So I use ``..'' instead of "..".  The old LaTeX exporter used
to translate ".." to ``..'' by default, which the new one does not do.

Since "smart quote" for LaTeX is usually a necessity rather than a
preference, would it make sense to have it enabled by default for the
LaTeX backend and all other backends that derive from it?

Of course if that is not reasonable, I can always get use the filter
suggested by Jambunathan earlier in the thread.

Cheers,
