I would probably defer to the Modify Epub plugin if at all possible. Simply because it (and the underlying calibre routine) takes a few extra precautions to prevent the destruction of things like html comments (SmartyPants on its own will convert any occurrence of -- to an emdash by default. "<!-- Hello -->"... you get the idea). I also believe the SmartyPants script that ships with calibre has some modifications that are not included with the last official version of SmartyPants. I posted my wrapper script before I knew the Modify Epub plugin was an option. But have at it if you're adventurous.
