Issue with gallery title apostrophes (and merging gallery images)

A user created a gallery called "God's Country".

I have a page which lists images from galleries with "2016 Calendar" in them and she wants to appear on that page. This is where I discovered the issue with changing the Gallery Title and that's been fixed.

She had created a few galleries with variations on the name "God's Country" so I wanted to merge them into one Gallery. But Jamroom doesn't allow me to simply edit the title of one Gallery to be the same as an existing Gallery and thereby merge the two. Please consider that, possibly. Not sure if it's a good idea, all things considered; but I thought I should be able to do that.

So, while not being able to merge them that way, I went to the Batch Editor and changed the Gallery Titles to "God's Country 2016 Calendar". However, Jamroom now called the calendars "God\\\'s Country 2016 Calendar".

So I tried editing the title back to "God's Country 2016 Calendar" in the regular form at that point but Jamroom returned an error saying the Gallery couldn't be found in the database.

So I went back into the Batch Editor and changed the Gallery Title on all of the images to "Gods Country 2016 Calendar". Then went to the form and tried to change the Gallery Title to "God's Country 2016 Calendar" but I got the same database error.

You can - just edit the image and you'll see the existing galleries are shown in the "Gallery" select and text field - you can choose a different gallery here.

That looks like it is being double encoded - I will check that out.
