 this function does not work for single quote.

 If a such function exists - esc_attr() than logically it should also exist
 a reverted function like capture_attr() or cap_attr() for such task.

 function esc_attr():

 {{{
 function esc_attr( $text ) {
         $safe_text = wp_check_invalid_utf8( $text );
         $safe_text = _wp_specialchars( $safe_text, ENT_QUOTES );
         return apply_filters( 'attribute_escape', $safe_text, $text );
 }
 }}}

 function cap_attr():

 {{{
 function cap_attr( $text ) {
         $safe_text = wp_specialchars_decode( $text, ENT_QUOTES );
         return apply_filters( 'attribute_capture', $safe_text, $text );
 }
 }}}

 No?
