 I think using <quote> instead of &[lr]aquo; is more reasonable.  The
 <quote> element in DocBook is just for in-line text with quotation
 marks, not implying either citation or other semantics.  So, if you
 just want to add quotation marks around a text, not for emphasizing
 it, using <quote> is the right way.
