--- Comment #2 from Eike Rathke <erack at redhat.com> ---
The replacement while typing can be undone with an immediate Ctrl+Z that leaves
the unreplaced ' single quote (apostrophe) character. The change commit linked
above states in it's comment the sources why the change was done. I think it is
more common to expect the correct typographical quotes being inserted if quote
replacement is enabled then to expect the apostrophe be preserved. Also note
that previously the apostrophe wasn't kept either but replaced with a ’ U+2019
RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK instead (when typing Brian')

This is not a matter of locale data. To fix this properly, Writer (and
EditEngine) would have to keep track of whether an opening quote character was
used before and only then change to a closing quote.
