While not automatic, you can use the following:
%s/\%(^\%("[^"]*"\|[^"]\)*\)\@<=\%("[^"]*\|[^"]\+\)\%>50c/\r&
(where "50" is where you want things to wrap; this could be
generated dynamically with an :exec and &tw to pull in the current
value of text-width)
which should come fairly close. Unfortunately, you have to just
repeat its execution until it fails (rather than use the "/g" flag).

For single-vs-double quotes, I'd just hack together an alternate
version that swaps the desired character in. For the triple-quote
strings that Python allows, it becomes a whole other ball of wax.
