That's too tech-savy. The aim of wikisyntax is to be easy to
understand - we can't ask people to put a \ before ' or surround it by
<nowiki></nowiki>.
I don't mind a slightly more complex syntax for tables, templates &
such, "advanced" behaviour. But for your daily usage (and ' is used
often at least in french), something quite simple to use is imo
waaaaaaay better.
Yes, I agree on the "simple" solution. However, the current situation
isn't "simple" for things like l'''italic'' because it
is unclear what
exactly that should mean. Maybe it means
l<i>'italic</i>
or it means
l'<i>italic</i>
How is the computer (and the human writing it) to know which is which? You
need at least one more bit information to distinguish between these two
variants.
Best wishes,
Tels
