I'd prefer the alternate quote solution - open followed by close followed by open... Fairly trivial to implement. Nested quotes are always alternating double and single, so that isn't a problem. The habit of opening paragraphs with a single opening quote and then opening the next paragraph by the same speaker, OTOH, would thoroughly screw this up, so I'd have it as an optional setting that just work for all.
