Public bug reported:
When the containing directory name contains an apostrophe, launching a
file in either the default or a specific viewer fails.
For example, I have photos in a directory whose full path is
"/media/abentley/ED1T/Pictures/2012/Trisha's 40th birthday". Attempting
to launch the file by double-clicking launches Gnome Image Viewer, which
errors with "The given locations contain no images."
Launching the file in Firefox attempts to load the URL
"file:///media/abentley/ED1T/Pictures/2012/Trisha%27s".
Launching the file in Chromium attempts to load the URL
"file:///media/abentley/ED1T/Pictures/2012/Trisha's"
