I recently started getting warnings of the form:
emacspeak-speak.el:2267:2: Warning: docstring has wrong usage of
unescaped single quotes (use \= or different quoting)
Is this truly useful -- or is it spurious and therefore an annoyance
-- I just can tell.
All I can say is that this warning shows up on code that has been
working correctly for a long time.

It's to warn about things like
(setq foo '(1 2 3))
in doc strings which turns into invalid code when displayed in *Help*.

thanks for the clarification -- sounds useful, but perhaps it could
avoid warning about strings like:
" ...
's' means set.
'e' means erase.
..."
though am not sure how hard checking for corner cases will get.
I did fix all my code relatively quickly so am past it for now

Those should be

if they're key strokes.

In Emacs 29 or later, that could be \\`s' and \\`e' to use the
'help-key-binding' font.

The font selection is nice, but we should hide these nits from the
developer.

I'm not against that, but I don't know how to differentiate between
the symbol `s' and the key `s' here without special markup.
(I should have said the `help-key-binding' "face" rather than "font"
here, sorry.)

Understand the issue, but emacs strings already have too many
backslashes
