Joomla doesn't allow ' char in user email, JFormRuleEmail pattern has ` but not '

It is allowed to have an apostrophe ' in the e-mail address by the RF5322 standard as long as it is an ASCII character.

Irish email as example: o'sullivan@domain.com

I see BC issue:
Initial 'grave accent' char ` (0x60) was replaced with 'single quote' ' (0x27), so all current emails with 0x60 will be invalidated and users won't be able to save profiles.

We should add new allowed char (single quote) to patterns but not replace any existing chars.

This problem is still an issue -- Joomla still does not accept apostrophes in email addresses.

The PR that was referencing this issue has been closed without being merged, so please can the issue be re-opened?

I am having the same issue. I have a number of email addresses with apostrophes in them - and they are valid email addresses.

Can the issue be re-opened and the PR merged?
