 When Wordpress generates a slug, the apostrophe mark is stripped.

 Examples :

 "I'm open" > im-open[[BR]]
 "L'équipe" > lequipe[[BR]]
 "Suzy's Place" > suzys-place[[BR]]

 If the apostrophe is changed to "-" the auto generated slug will be more
 "readable" (and better for seo) :

 "I'm open" > i-m-open[[BR]]
 "L'équipe" > l-equipe[[BR]]
 "Suzy's Place" > suzy-s-place[[BR]]

 Maybe a constant to define what strategy to adopt ?
