R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

The point of html.escape is to sanitize a string that contains html such that 
*it does not get interpreted as html*.  So adding html markup would go against 
its purpose.  Further, including <br /> in an attribute value (which is the 
purpose of quote=True) would make no sense and serve no purpose that I can see.

Clearly you have a use case in mind, but you did not describe it.  I would 
recommend posting to the python-list mailing list for advice on the best way to 
accomplish your use case.
