I'm trying to track down all of the 'why's here.

The Qt code recently was changed to use ' instead of a special close-by
unicode glyph. The code comments in the test cases for Qt still talks
about the special unicode glyph. At least the code comments should be
fixed, if not something else. (this is code based off cldr, so Qt might
be more correct now)

The Okular code in question also seems to go out of the way to get that
special unicode glyph that is '-like, so it seems like it is on purpose.

There are various (broad) hammers we could apply, like a
.replace("'","\u2019") in okular, but let's get to the bottom of 'why'
first
