Afaik, there's currently no solution for this.
(except the above mentioned and an additional and ugly space)
But there are some similiar problems.
E.g. you want to say "Objects" in a sentence but you want "Object" (w/o "s")
to be a link to the doc of "Object".
"Object s" is ugly and "Object's" is wrong.

Some kind of TeX-like {} might be useful.
Something that doesn't appear in the output but works as a delimiter for
doxygen.
