That does NOT happen in normal use. The hydrogen and oxygen produced recombine back into water inside the battery.
You can force that to happen if you abuse the battery however......like applying a charging voltage that is WAY too high and leaving it on for a long time. That usually doesn't happen though.
For those folks who want to install batteries and then pretty much forget them, AGMs probably are the best choice even considering the extra cost.
