To be honest, although I know the rule, I think this is one that's most forgivable if people mess it up. Sure, the other forms of pronoun possession (hers and his) don't follow the "normal" way of writing possession, but I don't see that as as egregious as writing "you're" when you mean "your" or something like that. Maybe that's my own blind spot, though.
