>
> The escape functions for HTML etc. use the same code and the same
> initialisation tables for the escape and unescape functions, and while this
> is an elegant approach it leads to a number of deficiencies:
> 1. The code is very much less efficient than it could be
> 2. A new output string is created even when no conversion is required
> 3. No mapping is provided for characters that do not have a specific
> representation (for example HTML 0x101 should become ā)
> The proposal is to use a new mapping technique to address these issues
