Are you certain we're talking about the same thing? If you mean that calibre's stock smartener will take two consecutive strait single quotes ('') and always collapse those into one curly double quote--well that's never been my experience. If you mean something else--like backticks; then yes, I made a conscious decision to not include support for ``stuff like this'' being converted into opening and closing curly double quotes.
I'll certainly look into making it possible for someone to turn that feature on if they like, but it's just not something I've ever needed. And in my testing, it usually introduced more anomalies than it was worth.

Nevertheless, a nice gui dialog perhaps?

I'll think about it.
But I've sort of made that "feature" a little difficult to implement on purpose. The potential for trouble is already there with the ability to change div to p. But if at possible, I'd like to avoid having to answer questions about why someone's ebook broke after they replaced a perfectly valid nested structure with html elements that cannot be nested.
Those with the knowledge to edit a json file will more likely know what they're doing with regard to markup.
