I didn't realize an authoring tool was required. I like to be able to write things in a text editor and I thought the goal was to make this possible. If you are going to use an authoring tool I do not see the reason for this kind of markup.
You said in the specification that quotes could be replaced to whatever the user wanted and for this you have to be able to distinguish between a quote and constructions like 'em. And it seems impossible to do this with your rules. And you have examples like: "The coordinate was 49° 12' 27" N"
