apostrophe in and <desc></h1><pre>I think I found a small bug in tooltips with apostrophes coming from <title>
and <desc> elements.
While " and " are displayed as quotes correctly e.g.,
' and ' are not displayed as apostrophes but as string "&apos".

By the time we get this the XML parser will have "expanded"
"'" to "'". So we get: "I want to say 'hello' and 'world'".
But before we set the label on the tooltip we 'requote' the
problematic characters so the text should go to:
"I want to say 'hello' and 'world'"
Which should display fine, but there appears to be a bug in
the handling of "'" so you get "&apos". Since I think this
will only ever end up in a tag body it is safe for us to simply
skip the requoting of "'" - which is what I did locally, and will
deliever at some point.

but it's not a attribute, it is the tag body
<title>I want to say 'hello' and 'world'</title>

This is very odd but true!
We don't really need to quite the apos since these will never be
in attribute values, so I've commented this out. I can't understand
why the JDK knows the other entities but not this one!
