 Thanks for this!

 Replying to [comment:1 azaozz]:
 > This fixes it in wptexturize() but not in the admin. There are about 90
 places with hard-coded curly quotes in there. Perhaps we have to make
 `$opening_quote` and  `$closing_quote` global vars and make sure they are
 changed as soon as the translation functions are available (there are
 probably places where curly quotes are used very early).

 I thought this was not an issue with admin strings, since their typography
 was entirely up to translators.  For example, I just use the appropriate
 quotations marks for the language:

 {{{
 #: wp-admin/includes/image.php:150
 #, php-format
 msgid "File “%s” is not an image."
 msgstr "Το αρχείο «%s»  δεν είναι εικόνα."
 }}}

 ... and I’m done.

 Isn’t that so?
