Well, I've just run Calibre's Smarten punctuaction (the curly double quotation mark button in the Editor toolbar) on that same text and I've gotten:

Code:
  <p>”Tis is a dialogue’ John said.</p>

  <p>”Whatever” is not a dialogue.</p>
which is quite odd in any case... It seems that a pair of ' is always converted into a curly right double quotation mark.

Is everything fine? Or is there some kind of bug here?
