HTML like <q>something</q> are rendered like ''something'' everytime. This is
not correct in every language. For example, <q> on polish pages should give
apostrophes like ,,something''. On spanish: <<something>>.
See bug #94348 for other examples of quotes.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. render some html with <q> elements

Actual Results:  
Elements are always rendered like  "this"

Expected Results:  
Style of quotation should fit the locale/language/encoding of web page.
Ooops. Sorry, wrong bug referenced. Other examples of quotes are in bug #234800
