Well, if the general opinion is that there *should* be such a
function included in PHP, around a week or so ago I implemented
a version that uses the multiple charset aware tables that are
already in html.c.

But the voting was -0 (Derick) and +1 (Yasuo).
Personally, I'm +0 since I have written the code but never ever
needed to un-htmlentity a string in the last 2-3 years.
