If we can find a way, any way, that this can be updated for more and more
languages, that may be okay. If it has to be a one-time shot, it's a really bad
idea.

I had a look at it. I see at least two problems:
1) It would be better to use actual characters, with character numbers in
comments or some such. Github and other tools these days shouldn't have
problems with UTF-8. This would make things much easier to verify.
2) There's an essential error I think in that the quotes should be determined
by the language outside the quote, not the language of the quote itself. So for
example, instead of:
q:lang(en-gb) { quotes: "\2018" "\2019" "\201C" "\201D" }
q q:lang(en-gb) { quotes: "\201C" "\201D" }
it should be something like:
*:lang(en-gb) q { quotes: "\2018" "\2019" "\201C" "\201D" }
q:lang(en-gb) q { quotes: "\201C" "\201D" }
