Comment (by archon810):

 OK, I found an option that makes this go away - it's called Markup
 language, and it's set to XHTML by default (even though the help hint says
 HTML should be default - yeah, not so). Changing it to HTML fixes the
 issue, though I'm not sure what other side effects it could bring.

 So, there's no separate quote related option (there is one for smart
 quotes, but it's not relevant), but a fix is available. It'd still be
 great if Wordpress could handle this case for default WLW setups, but it's
 not necessary anymore.

 Why not add a few pre-processor filters to shortcodes, however? Is there
 any harm to doing so? I remember wanting those before on some occasions,
 although they may all end up being because of this quote problem.
