 According to Codex wp_filter_nohtml_kses( $data ) should only '''strip all
 of the HTML in the content'''. But it also escapes single quotes in plain
 text.

 Example:

 {{{#!php
 <?php
         $filtered_string = wp_filter_nohtml_kses(  "You're not allowed to
 do this!" );
         echo $filtered_string;
 }}}

 The above will output:


 {{{
 You\'re not allowed to do this!
 }}}
