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.
