Bug#946485: kbibtex: misplaced ending double-quotes when creating biblatex records

Package: kbibtex
Version: 0.8.1-1+b1
Severity: normal

Dear maintainer:

kbibtex misplaces double-quotation ending in title and subtitle fields when
filling them after selecting BibLaTeX as bibliography system (I haven't tried
others though). Steps:

1) Setup kbibtex to use BibLaTex.
2) Create a "New element": journal article, whatever.
3) Fill either Title or Subtitle boxes.
4) Change to Source tab and see how ending double quotes are misplaced leading
to a corrupt biblatex file:
        title = "{My long title"} instead of title = "{My long title}"

This causes biblatex file corruption when keeping on filling fields in other
tabs' boxes (you can track this inspecting Source tab as you enter new data). A
workaround is to manually correct the ending in Source tab and then entering
data should behave the right way, at least until you create another "New
element".

Regards,
Antonio
