Glad this helps, but I think that using "fuzzy" for this is a bit
sledgehammer-to-nut.  The way to handle the "don't/dont" problem is
just to make apostrophe an insignificant character, neither
word-breaking nor word-constituent.  I'm sure Seb or Adam can tell
you how (I sure can't).
Man, I forget how often I've wished we had a null-character mapping, but as far as I know, there's no way to do that.. it shouldn't necessarily be too hard to do, either.
