I am not sure I follow that argument. We already have been ignoring ' with
Zebra for many years and never got a bug filed about it. On the other hand, we
have a lot of people now that ask for it to ignore the '. 

Would it be possible to make it configurable? If not, I'd say we should just go
with it. It's a big issue for French. And searching 'dont' is what I feel is
more common than 'don t'.
