But I'd also want to replace ‘ with “, replace “ with ‘ (this actually requires four steps where I first switch them both to different unused symbols before switching them to each other), replace ” with some symbol, then start replacing all the instances of ’ that don't need to remain as they are with ”. Once you're done, replace that last symbol with ’.

Even when this is done, you'll still have a few errors left, such as when somebody is transliteratin’ some sort o’ accent, which won't be right, so you'll need to manually check over the whole book—there's no avoiding it!

But being able to do those first ten steps or so with just a few clicks would make the process a lot faster.
