I understand that a single quote should be used when
writing /won't/, but it's probably not the first time __YOU_WON_01
hits on /won’t/ with a right single quotation mark.
Apparently this can happen automatically in certain text editors
when there are two apostrophes in the same sentence.
I would suggest a second negative lookahead to correct the issue.
Thanks, I'll try to get that in for tonight's masscheck.
It seems a bit premature. Possibly some editors do try to convert
text quoted with two apostrophes into a proper quotation. If one tried
to convert two legitimate apostrophes into a bogus quote, splitting-up
words in the process, I'd consider that to be a significant bug.
It's not that.
Think MSFT's annoying "smart quotes" converting a single typed apostrophe
within a word into a Unicode right single quote so that it Looks Good.
I feel it's a valid issue, and the fix is checked in (at least for one
flavor of Unicode right single quote, I didn't review the entire Unicode
code space).
