Thanks for pointing this out, but I still think this is a bug for LaTeX
export. Quoting as ".." produces incorrect output in LaTeX, the correct
forms are `..' or ``..''. This is even more important if you are
writing in a language that uses umlauts, and the situation can get
confusing as the character " is used to specify umlauts.
This is worth a thought since the old exporter did it right without any
special settings.
