Hi, Jacob.

May I ask a clarifying question here?  Is autoescaping going to be on
by default, or no?  And what exactly is it that's being added here --
a template tag for turning on/off autoescaping?

I know we've gone round and round about this, so I don't mean to cover
old ground, but I did search the archives and wiki a bit and I'm still
not clear.  If it's not on by default, as James said, how does this
make life safer for anyone?  Don't get me wrong, I've argued against
autoescaping before, but if it's in the framework why not turn it on
by default?  And I guess I don't really see the difference in turning
on/off autoescaping globally in a base template vs. a global setting.

Cheers,
deryck
