Keith Wall commented on QPID-7141:
----------------------------------
We said that the scope of the work would be to entity encode the
names/descriptions etc when generating the HTML. Some ConfiguredObjects have
HTML markup in their descriptions. The HTML markup should be removed. In the
long term, formatting will be reintroduced using a different form (possibly
markdown), but this is beyond the scope of this work.

> The content of the /apidocs html page is derived from the broker which is not
> aware of html semantics.
> We have to make sure the strings coming from the broker are correctly encoded
> before putting them in the HTML DOM.
> OWASP has some information about correct escaping/encoding for different
