If you wanted the wikimode that '' gives you, and inadvertantly type ''' instead, optimally, backspacing should return you to '', rather than eating the 'token' altogether, since 'civilians' don't know from 'tokens'.
I'm kind of totally confused. I was pretty much presuming that for normal "civilians", typing '' would give them '' - two apostrophes, which would be escaped when you save. If you're in some fancy mode where giving '' actually gives you italics, and ''' gives you bold, well, you can probably figure out why apostrophe-apostrophe-apostrophe-backspace gives you nothing at all.
Because I assumed you meant "I type '''this, and when I type the 't', the system switches to bold, and makes the ''' disappear immediately", which is pretty clearly not what you really meant. :-)
