Technically possible, but I don't think maposmatic/ocitysmap2 would be the right place to do it. Incorrect/ill-formatted information should be fixed at the source, that's one thing openstreetmap is good at.

IMHO, the rendering code is not the place to make such changes, especially since it may not apply to all languages. It should be done in the data retreival for the index, and passed through a function of one of i18n's subclasses.

My opinion: I agree that we could change some OSM data to make them prettier on the map. However, after a quick glance at the proposed patch, I fear it would risk to change data in an uncontrolled way, as we don't know all the rules in all languages used by OSM.

One proposal would be to match on longer prefixes, e.g. L'.

Suggestion: quote characters in street names would be prettier if rendered in the index as typographic quotes instead of straight ASCII quotes. This may seem to be contrary to your "don't modify OSM data" dogma, but the difference between an ordinary quote and a typographic quote character is in presentation, not in semantics.

See attached patch.
