Walter Underwood commented on LUCENE-3748:
------------------------------------------
Why make separate patches for characters instead of using Unicode
normalization? Converting to NFKC would also solve this for the prime character
(U+2032) and any other codepoint that is equivalent.
Compatibility normalization is designed for precisely this purpose, equivalence
ignoring appearance.
> EnglishPossessiveFilter should work with Unicode right single quotation mark

> The current EnglishPossessiveFilter (used in EnglishAnalyzer) removes
> possessives using only the '\'' character (plus 's' or 'S'), but some common
> systems (German?) insert the Unicode "\u2019" (RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK)
> instead and this is not removed when processing UTF-8 text. I propose to
> change EnglishPossesiveFilter to support '\u2019' as an alternative to '\''.
