IMO, the second example may not be escaped as we don't know the escape sequence
for binding. You have used an XML entity instead of the brace, but I think
that immediately gets evaluated into the brace UTF-8 character before parsing.
These entities are required for compliant XML, but don't mark the characters
for the parsing phase. It is similar to trying to inject "\n" into strings in
Java and other languages. The escape sequence might be \{ or {{ or something
else, I don't know. Or there isn't a sequence and we need to invent one.
Of course, I could be wrong...

I think this is rare enough that we have bigger fish to fry even if it is a
bug.
