[whatwg] Quoted (') and (") appear as ('''') and (''''')

Printable Unicode characters are referred to in at least five  
different ways:
	U+003D EQUALS SIGN (<code title="">=</code>)
	U+003D EQUALS SIGN ("<code title="">=</code>")
	U+003D EQUALS SIGN character (=)
	U+002D HYPHEN-MINUS ("-")
	U+003D EQUALS SIGN

Printable ASCII-characters are usually referred to as follows:
	0x3D (ASCII '=')

The ideal solution would of course be to make this fully consistent ?  
e.g., by using the style U+... (<code>...</code>) for Unicode all the  
time and perhaps also 0x... (ASCII <code>...</code>) for ASCII.

Failing that, "'" and '"' (two occurrences of each, excluding an  
unrelated unproblematic instance inside a script) should be changed  
since they appear confusingly as ''''' and '''' in a sans-serif  
typeface.
