<i>Rolling Stone</i>'s serialises to: '''Rolling Stone'''s which then converts back to <i>Rolling Stone'</i>s In both Parsoid & PHP parser, with the apostrophe now italicised.

We still have a minor round trip issue where ''Rolling Stone'''s round trips to ''<nowiki>Rolling Stone'</nowiki>''s Although the latter is arguably much better, it is still a dirty diff.
When the <i> and its subtree is unmodified, selective serialization avoids dirty diffs. So in any case the diff will be very localized. Because of the complex heuristics used in quote handling it will be difficult to avoid nowikis altogether for modified or new content. We can try to serialize this as ''Rolling Stone'<nowiki/>''s though.
Actually, ''Rolling Stone''<nowiki/>'s is the desired serialization.
This has already been fixed at some point in the last 6 weeks. [subbu@earth tests] echo "<i>Rolling Stone</i>'s" | node parse --html2wt ''Rolling Stone''<nowiki/>'s
