Apostrophe errors
There have been some comments about apostrophe vs. right single quote errors, but this still does not appear to be resolved (even testing on the most up to date version of fill in the blanks).
Is there a fix for this? Or is there some reason why fill in the blank cannot treat apostrophes and right single quote characters as equivalent?
Specifically, submitting a single right quote (i.e., ’ or ’, in html terms) in place of an apostrophe (i.e., ') in an answer will return an "incorrect" result.
I'm still trying to figure out how the learners reporting this issue are entering the answer with a single quote, because it usually will take more work. The leading explanations are:
I posted about this issue on the content github site in an open issue about this, and was redirected here.
Here's an example screenshot, if it helps make things clearer.
Finally, here's the live link to this H5P content in question.
PS: In case it comes up, this content is focused on spelling and correct typing/text entry, so turning on "allow spelling errors" is not an option that will allow us to use this content and provide accurate feedback.

Punctuation
I created a gap-fill to practice contractions. If the apstrophe is within the word, such as in a negative - aren't - it was recognised. However, if the apostrophe is at the beginning of the contraction, i.e. 're or 's, it isn't recognised. Is there a soloutino for this?

Each answer should only appear once
Is it possible that Each answer only appears once in the cloze text?
