Spin off from bug 514054 -- it turns out that article data is escaped before saving it to the database, making things such as sending it in emails unnecessarily hard.

In general, best practices are to store the data unescaped, and escape it on display, since we don't know where that data is going to be used and want to allow flexibility.

I think it would be great if we could help Tiki fix this before we upgrade.
