If some HTML containing a » character gets selected and the source is
viewed via the 'View Selection Source' option in the context menu, the actual
representation of » (>>) is displayed, rather than '»' itself.  If
View Source is used via the toolbar to look at the entire document, then the
HTML source is correct.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Find any page that uses » (http://www.csszengarden.com/ if you can't
think of any)
2.  Select the >> and some surrounding text
3.  Right click and select 'View Selection Source'


Actual Results:  
The source will show >> instead of »

Expected Results:  
The source should show »

I haven't checked, but this might also apply to other special characters.

» is the character displayed when using » 
I see this, but I'm pretty sure it's a dupe of another bug. I think we fixed
  relatively recently...
