OK, context: I am writing a book! Both, the subject of the book (regular expressions) and the manual process to produce an EPUB is still largely unknown. Nevertheless, the progress I find remarkable - with confidence, I gladly announce the presentation for Christmas 2017.
These regular expressions are very useful for text editing, HTML & CSS are mandatory anyway. Well, a secondary aspect is that the brain cells get trained.

Yes, Boost
's get transformed to Boost
’s (Typewriter apostrophe get transformed to an apostrophe. Correct!?)

That's the point: Even if it is what has been done in every punctuation smartener that you know. Here, this kind of smartening makes no sense: the text will be alienated.
I have discovered the matter only by chance, the book got over 300 pages.
God knows what else has been
'smartened'?
Does there exist a list what kind of 'things' get smartened and how - before/after status!?
