[Bug 816348] [NEW] CSV should escape using double-quotes

 

Public bug reported:

When exporting data and you can get CSV output by choosing "Save as
CSV". However, if one of the fields exported has double quotes, they are
escaped with a backslash, so

Product 10" becomes Product 10\"

However, CSVs should escape double-quotes using a quote, so the above
example would read Product 10""

Otherwise, openoffice (at least) screws up with CSVs with quotes.
