@jantimon honestly, I don’t understand why exactly exclamation point breaks the build. But, I have some notes.

First of all, we can use a “LATIN LETTER RETROFLEX CLICK” as mentioned in issue above. Or any other exclamation point character described here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exclamation_mark#Unicode_and_HTML

Also I noticed, that this trouble appears only in production mode build. While running webpack build with process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production' everything is fine. I have regular exclamation point both in title and description and no errors thrown.
