If you put this HTML on a page:
  Hey look, a <q>quotation</q>!
then it obviously displays in the browser as
  Hey look, a “quotation”!
But if you then copy this from the browser and paste it somewhere else, you get
  Hey look, a quotation!


Reproducible: Always




I’m using Firefox 2.0.0.1 on Ubuntu feisty.
