[S2] Single quote in package.properties

[Eric Rank]

This should be an easy one.

When putting a single quote in a package.properties resource bundle  
entry, by default, the quote get's removed and none of the variables  
in the entry get loaded.

1. What's the best way to have an entry with a single quote?
Using &apos; with <s:property value="%{message}" escape="false" />  
works, but is this the only way?

2. What are the rules behind how the single quotes work in the  
package.properties files? Said differently, what's the intended and  
expected behavior of a string with a single quote?

=================================

For example, in the package.properties file:

message.myMessage=I've added a single quote in the first word. and  
this variable {0} will not get populated

renders as:

"Ive added a single quote in the first word. and this variable {0}  
will not get populated"

when I expect:

I've added a single quote in the first word. and this variable  
VariableSentIn will not get populated

=================================

Thanks!
