Agreed.  I'm thinking about filing an RM bug against cycle-quotes; its
last release happened 4 years ago (although there are some non-useful
new commits on https://github.com/emacsmirror/cycle-quotes), it fails to
build with Emacs 28, has been blocked for 790 days, and doesn't have any
reverse-dependencies.

Thoughts?
