As the author of a custom DocBook->latex translator, this is bad news and means that there is no way to take advantage of the asciidoctor syntax for double-quoted and single-quoted words. Maybe this info could be supplied to the docbook output, e.g. in the form of:

* a custom role for the quote element
* a custom processing instruction (<?dblatex single/double>) before or after

or some other form which do not sabotage for normal DocBook readers?
