Comment:

 Protecting yourself against XSS is a fundamental security issue that any
 person doing web development must know and protect against.  Django
 provides an ```escape``` template filter.  I am closing this ticket since:

 1.  You should be using ```escape``` on user input regardless.
 2.  The admin site where a user would enter that (through the admin) is
 for trusted users and not the general public.
