Upgrade StorageApostrophes in searcher
Apostrophes in Zotero's searcher (the search box in the top bar) take into account formatting. If you search for an author whose surname contains an apostrophe, you will have to carry out two searches, one with a straight apostrophe (') and another with a curly apostrophe (’). If the user does not know this, it might lead the user to think that the search is not working.

Mark.EI would just add that this issue also comes up when searching the Zotero library while inserting a citation in Word.
