Texturize text filter is not working properly

Description

Texturize text filter formats differently various quotes in greek text and in english text also.

Correct examples given in the Codex are:

"quoted text" becomes “quoted text”
'quoted text' becomes ’quoted text’

BUT, look at the below screenshots to see the difference in formatting the same double quotes:

Just tested this on a local site running 4.5 in Greek. Added a bunch of quotes at various places in a Greek text and the result was correct when viewing the post.

Note that the Greek translation for the single and double quotes is different from the default, so perhaps 2 years ago it was simply not translated.

I'm closing this as worksforme, but if this is still happening for you, feel free to reopen this issue along with detailed steps to reproduce (preferably with some example text we can use for testing).

Also, make sure it's reproducible with the latest version of WordPress with all plugins disabled and running one of the default themes.
