you're right. Someone suggested already a special SGML tag for quotes so
that these can be reformatted later dependent on the language and
recognize inner and outer quotes (" '' "). This is also used for the
website, which uses <q>...</q>. Maybe later ...

Please edit
/usr/share/texmf-tetex/tex/latex/tools/varioref.sty
and send a patch to the LaTeX maintainers (please CC: me).
As a workaround it would be possible to redefine the \vpageref macro
similar to
\renewcommand{\vpageref}[1]{on page \pageref{#1}}
in the header of the generated tex file (via perl magic in Makefile or
by editing tools/lib/Locale/ro_RO.ISO8859-2/LaTeX in the debiandoc-sgml
package (similar as ja does)).

You forgot to publish the SGML file so that I could not test a possible UTF-8
encoding extension.
