Yeah, I got another bug report about this as well :)
(Bug #749995)

It's too late to change this for Natty, unfortunately — I didn't realise this would be a problem until well past string freeze — but I'll see about fixing it for Ocelot. Ideally it will be a change that maintains the good practice of having proper quotes and apostrophes, maybe replacing them — or escaping them — in the build process. (There are a few scripts that will do that, though I'm unsure how they do for il8n).
I wonder if we can get Launchpad to present these characters better?…

Title:
  Avoide HTML entities in translatable tekst.

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu

  When a string contains "don’t" it makes it unnecessarily hard to
  read for translators. If the text is in a place where the character
  isn't allowed it would be better to escape it.
