Henri Yandell closed LANG-612.

       Resolution: Duplicate
    Fix Version/s: 3.0

In Lang 3.0 this is the default behaviour - namely that escapeXml only escapes 
" < > and &. 

To get the old behaviour you would do:

StringEscapeUtils.XML_ESCAPE.with(UnicodeEscaper.above(0x7f)).escape(...)

Opinions on the API much appreciated :)

StringEscapeUtils is now a helper class to an underlying text.translate 
package. Static helper translators are available (as used above), along with 
the old (String) methods. The (Writer) methods are gone, instead you can call a 
(Writer) API directly on the underlying translator objects.

> I thought it'd be nice to have another method to do only the basic escapes 
> (double-quote, ampersand, less-than, and greater-than) so one can 
> escape/unescape xml or html while leaving the unicode escapes (or lack 
> thereof) intact.  This could also be done as a boolean passed to the existing 
> xml and html methods that would indicate whether or not the unicode should 
> also be escaped/unescaped.
