            Bug ID: 139741
           Summary: Autocorrection of double quotes does not work
                    correctly when not ignoring system input language
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer

Replacement of double quotes, that is performed according to "Localized
Options" tab in AutoCorrect dialog, does not honor the language of system input
that is used to type the quote, when "[ ] Ignore system input language" is
*unchecked* in Options->Language Settings on Windows.

Steps to reproduce:
0. Pre-requisites:
   * install Russian (Russia) keyboard layout on Windows.
   * Make sure "[ ] Ignore system input language" is *unchecked* in
Options->Language Settings.
   * Make sure that "Default" is shown next to "Start quote" and "End quote"
double-quote buttons under Localized Options tab of AutoCorrect dialog.
1. In Writer, start typing characters in Russian layout. Note that text
language is automatically set to Russian (shown in status bar).
2. Press space bar, and press Shift+2 (double quote in Russian layout).
   => « is inserted, which is correct character expected in Russian text.
3. Change system keyboard layout to en-US (Shift+Alt works for me).
4. Start typing English characters; note that text language is automatically
set to English in status bar.
5. Change keyboard layout to Russian (Shift+Alt).
6. Press Shift+2 (double quote in Russian layout) to insert closing double
quote.
   => the language is still English; the entered symbol is ”, which is expected
in English text.

It seems that changing of the text language to match input language is only
performed when some alphanumeric character is entered; double quotes do not
trigger such change, and then last used language is in effect when
autocorrection is performed, making it difficult to control which symbols are
used for opening and closing quotes surrounding a text in a different language.

Tested with Version: 7.1.0.1 (x64)
