Re: 0027, 02BC, 2019, or a new character?

Top level IDN domain names can not contain 02BC, nor 0027 or 2019.

(RFC 6912 gives the rationale and RZ-LGR the implementation, see MSR-3)

It will probably be the ASCII apostrophe.  The stated intent favors

Typing U+0027 into a word processor takes planning.  Of the three, it
should obviously be the modifier letter U+02BC, but I think what gets
stored will be U+0027 or the single quotation mark U+2019.

However, we shouldn't overlook the diacritic mark U+0315 COMBINING COMMA
ABOVE RIGHT.

I have just tested twitter hashtags and as one would expect, U+02BC does not break hashtags. See twitter.com/andreschappo/status/953903964722024448
