Comment:
The current behaviour is correct; the previous behaviour was broken. This
is a consequence of r9442, wherein the join filter wasn't handling
autoescaping of the joining value properly. So join has to do escaping of
unsafe strings internally (this is the same as other filters that act on
lists).
You'll need to mark the strings you're passing in as safe strings (or
write a filter that applies the safe filter to each element of a list and
apply that before the join filter) in order to get the previous behaviour.
Sorry about that, but it's really unavoidable, since join has to be able
to work with things like "&" as the joiner, hence return a safe string,
hence do escaping itself, if autoescaping is available.
I've open #9701 to remind me to think about whether adding a safe-like
filter that applies elementwise to a list has any big downsides and is
worth it. There isn't an enormous use-case for it, but it might not hurt.
