Bug Description

This seems to only happen when the apostrophe is written after a space, so for example, when attempting to write "I think it's" the "it" preceding the apostrophe will be erased and only the apostrophe will stand in its place.

This is the kind of bug that may be avoided by just forking the original built-in input method available from here: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/packages/inputmethods/LatinIME.git;a=summary
