[Orgmode] quotation marks in LaTeX (again)

There's been some talk about quotation marks when exporting to LaTeX,
but I've noticed some issues in addition (I think) to those mentioned
by others.

     "'a quote' inside a quote"
is exported to LaTeX as
     ``'a quote' inside a quote''
but should be
     ``\,`a quote' inside a quote''

Similarly,
     "a quote that ends with 'a quote'"
is exported as
     ``a quote that ends with `a quote'''
but should be
     ``a quote that ends with `a quote'\,''

Implementing the \enquote solution proposed by Sven Bretfeld would a
fix for this, but that would probably have to be optional.  So I was
working on a regexp fix for this, but then I realized that there's a
host of cases where the beginning quote isn't recognized as beginning
because there isn't whitespace in front of it, such as when a quote
starts a parenthetical ("like this").  Maybe the solution is to use
the list of "allowed chars in pre" from
org-emphasis-regexp-components?
