Remove hardcoded characters from Audio/Video Playlist track listings

[qco]

The javascript templates used for Audio and Video playlists (media.php line 1144) automatically hardcode quotes and dashes into the various elements of the playlist items. I believe it would be better to move these to a filter (or fully handle with CSS) on the data being passed to the javascript, rather than being hardcoded on the output. If we want to restyle the playlist output, we still get stuck with double quotes on titles and dashes on the artist listing.

I can do this - thanks for the report!

Playlists, for .wp-playlist-item-title elements: move the curly quotes to CSS pseudo-element content, making them easier to override or remove.

Fixes #33391.

We are using in our language localized quotes, for example „ instead of “, etc. CSS solution does not respect it :-(

Replying to pavelevap:

That's understandable. Could those localized quotes (and the mdash on the artist line) be added in filters instead of hardcoded in the JS? It is otherwise relatively trivial to modify the design of the playlists in themes or plugins using CSS because the output is otherwise well structured, but these hardcoded characters make things unnecessarily strict in terms of output.

Let's give this another look

Let's add a new string, which can be modified using the gettext filter if needed: 33391.patch​.
