I'm still not convinced about the need to support this package out of
the box.

We already have a working solution for many languages, and more general
that this LaTeX-centered command. It has limitations, but "csquotes"
support would inherit them anyway since it would be built on top of
smart quotes mechanism.

If you want to csquotes, I suggest to:

  1. Disable smart quotes.

  2. Define a macro like:

     #+MACRO: q \enquote{$1}

  3. Call the macro when you need it:

     {{{q(something)}}}
