Details

The code to reproduce:
Q { font-style: italic }

The outside quotation characters end up being italicized instead of just the
quoted statement itself. I think the quotation characters should inherit the
font-style of the surrounding block and only the quote itself should be italicized.

Tested Platforms:

Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.6 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020913 Debian/1.2.6-2
INVALID since the quote characters are part of the element's generated content
which per CSS inherits the font of the generating element.
