Is there an easy way to process subtitle text (independently of where it comes from, after fetching and parsing etc)? Maybe an existing add-on that I can modify?
Or, maybe somebody has made one already that allows regex substitutions?

What sort of pre-processing or modifying is needed?

The specific processing I want is to detect quoted text and treat it differently from non-quoted. A common subtitle convention is for quoted text to translate on-screen text, while non-quoted refers to dialog. So you might want to suppress one or the other.
