Benson Margulies updated SOLR-2520:
-----------------------------------

    Description: 
Please see http://timelessrepo.com/json-isnt-a-javascript-subset.

If a stored field contains Unicode characters that are valid in Json but not 
valid in Javascript, and you use the query option to ask for JSONP (json.wrf), 
solr does *not* escape them, resulting in content that explodes on contact with 
browsers. That is, there are certain Unicode characters that are valid JSON but 
invalid in Javascript source, and a JSONP response is javascript source, to be 
incorporated in an HTML script tag. Further investigation suggests that only 
one character is a problem here:  U+2029 must be represented as \u2029 instead 
of left 'as-is'.
