We are trying to give our clients the ability to build their own reports for 
our application using Open Office. Unfortunatly when OO reads our UTF-8 strings 
out of the DB is converting a correctly formated UTF-8 string as follows: 
& becomes & 

This is wrong for 2 reasons, firstly the default encoding OO is using is UTF-8 
and & IS NOT UTF-8, it is HTML!!!! The correct UTF-8 coding for the & sign 
is &. Secondly OO should not be converting my data at all! I am already 
providing correct UTF-8, correctly stored in my DB as per W3C recommendations. 

(Pleas note that even though this is wrong for 2 reasons, it is still one bug!)
