Comment (by mtredinnick):
For consistency we should only autoescape when autoescaping is enabled and
calling escape() does the escaping too early. Since we support not using
auto-escaping in templates, those people don't need to mark strings as
safe, so we'll be double-escaping. We have to live with the shackles of
providing semi-backwards-compatibility if we can. So I want to think about
if there's a nice solution (which will also be applied throughout
newforms). If I can't think of anything credible by the weekend, I'll drop
in the six line patch I wrote for this today, but I want to think about it
a bit first to see if there's a better solution.
