    Description

      It would be great to offer a StringEscapeUtils.escapeJson method which is similar to StringEscapeUtils.escapeJavaScript but will not escape apostrophe (single-quote) chars.

      The current escapeJavaScript method does escape single-quote chars, but this produces invalid JSON. A good description of the problem can be found here:
