--- Comment #3 from [email protected] ---
Thank you for clarifying. However, isn't this expected behavior at the expense
of end-user usability? If a document contains, for example, multiple instances
of "Susan" and a few of "Susan's" that were typed by striking the apostrophe
key and allowing automatic smart quotes to be created, then performing a search
for the latter via the find bar, although not equivalent in the Unicode
representation of the document, would be expected to yield those results--In my
personal opinion smart-quotes should be transparent to the person ultimately
composing the document and using the software (or the quotes could get
auto-corrected when typing into the find bar).


The fact that other replacements for smart quotes are possible is a good point
though; I don't have any good idea as to how to handle those replacements, and
I of course do not have the full understanding of the design decisions made
behind both the find bar and find/replace tools and the smart quotes behavior.
