If you have an XLSForm with curly/smart quotes, when you convert it to an XForm, the form will contain invalid (as far as XML and ODK Validate) characters.

dumb/straight quotes, form is valid

dumb-quote

curly/smart quotes, form is invalid

smart-quote

I propose pyxform either throw a warning or convert the smart quotes to dumb quotes.

I would prefer converting smart quotes to dumb quotes since website examples have smart quotes and the intent is unambiguous.
