 I would like to propose a one click item in the administration panels

 [x] enhance quote marks (or whatever, yes checkmark=on by default).

 where one could, with one click, disable wptexturize(), _without any
 plugins_ or e.g., bug #8929.

 That way, one could by default, just have an old fashioned ASCII blog.

 You see many devices do not necessarily support all of UTF-8, and more
 importantly many older user think giving our text haridoos is plain
 unprofessional. "School requires all our hair to have curls this year."

 No I'm not sure if clicking it should/would change text already in the
 database.

 I'm not just saying one click to make it now do
 wptexturize($text){return $text;}
 It is more complicated than that, wptexturize is scattered around the code
 doing various roles.

 Anyway, please keep this bug on the back burner as a long term
 wishlist noting that some users feel wptexturize is so silly and there
 should be a way to disable it from the admin panels without a plugin.
