Description
The racketblock (and related) form(s) recognize (code:quote datum) and typesets it as (quote datum), i.e. without using '.
There doesn't seem to be a way to do something similar for quasiquote, unquote, and unquote-splicing, which makes writing about quotation really difficult.

Research direction
Start with the racketblock and related forms that recognize code:quote. Trace how code:quote is rendered without the quote shorthand, then determine the corresponding behavior for quasiquote, unquote, and unquote-splicing. Done means those forms can be typeset similarly when writing about quotation.
