You can change the amount of context provided, but if you walk through things one by one anyway, you can easily pick out which instances to skip, and even edit the text directly to handle all cases you want. So I guess I do not understand the problem you are trying to solve if you already plan to walk things manually.

The issue is the replacement value. I'm not trying to manually type in a different replacement value for each match. I just want to insert an apostrophe, be it in a blank space, or before an "s", or a "t", or an "ll", or am "re".
