That's a good question. It's a consequence of this change: https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor/issues/2272

How are single and double quotes differentiated in DocBook? I actually don't know. If I knew, it would be straightforward to add additional markup since we know which one it is at the time of conversion.

Running asciidoctor with docbook output the sentence.

A "`double-quoted word`" and a '`single-quoted word`'.

Gives the translation:
<simpara>A

double-quoted word

and a

single-quoted word

.</simpara>

Is this intended? How can I differentiate the quote marks?
