 If a search term wrapped in double quotes is entered into a search field
 on a WordPress site in iOS Safari, it will never return results, even if
 the search term is known to exist on the website.

 The bug is caused by some lack of sanitisation of the type of double-
 quotes that are sent by the iOS Safari keyboard.  That this is the case
 can be revealed by typing the search term, wrapped in double quotes, in a
 plain text editor on iOS, copying and pasting that into the WordPress
 search field in the browse and hitting return to perform the search; then,
 the search term succeeds in finding the (known to exist) result.
