That last one doesn't sound right. The algorithm should leave existing emdash (or endash) characters alone. It should only alter double (and triple) regular dash/hyphen instances. Under no circumstances have I witnessed the smartening algorithm change existing emdash characters (u2014) to endash characters (u2013).

Is there some confusion about what constitutes an em|en dash?
