I suppose a translator could look at the e.g. English original in the appropriate codepage(ie 1252) and easily recognize quote characters - if it can't be gathered from the context.

That doesn't really match my understanding of not creating additional problems without a real necessity. Without a real gain as well IMO.
Like it or not different languages use different styles of quoting, and you can't force everybody to use single quotes just because a couple of places are escaping " incorrectly.
