Thank you so much for raising this bug within Microsoft. It is greatly appreciated. We are very close to being feature complete for our Teams Bot application and would like to submit it for review within the next few weeks.

Do you have a rough estimate on how long it might take for this issue to be resolved? Do you think days or perhaps "weeks"?

Also, would it be at all possible for the autosuggest to both allow a user to type `@O'Reilly Answers` and also `@Oreilly Answers` to keep the bot in the autosuggest -- matching the autosuggest with and also without the apostrophe?

Thanks again for your attention!
