Allrighty. Then I'd like to turn my plea to the unification of quotation 
marks. Currently some coders use single and others double quotes. To my 
knowledge in English the single quote is standard while e.g. in German 
double quotes are the way to go.

Can we agree on a coding string standard for JOSM?
