Incorrect decoding Site Title in pre-publish checklist UI

[JJJ]

Description

I have an apostrophe in my blog title: JJJ's Blog. That apostrophe is oddly decoded in the prepublish UI.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

1. WordPress Admin > Settings > General > Site Title > Put an apostrophe ' here
2. Enable "Include pre-publish checklist" preference
3. Write a blog post using Gutenberg
4. Click "Publish"
5. Notice that the ' is decoded to '

Thanks for reporting, finding the line of code, and sharing related issues <3 @walbo it looks like you worked on this recently -- perhaps you can check this out too? :)

Did a quick test and I belive #33323 fixed this issue in Gutenberg. I do see the entities when running WP 5.8 without Gutenberg (looks like that is enviroment you are running).

I'm not sure how the process is when it comes to backporting PR's to minor WP releases but maybe #33323 should be included in WP 5.8.1?

The issue should be resolved now. Props to @walbo.
