stop filtering angle brackets when editing+discussion

It looks to me like the problem is a tinyMCE problem.  Everything looks fine in the database.  eg:

<p>&lt;test&gt;</p>

When the payload for tinyMCE comes back, it looks to me like it gets this:

<input id="main_1-hidden-content" name="card[content]" type="hidden" value="&lt;p&gt;&amp;lt;test&amp;gt;&lt;/p&gt;" />

You can see the & in &lt; gets converted to &amp;, so you'd think it should survive one round of unescaping, but apparently tinyMCE is doing two rounds, and then filtering out unknown html tags (in this case, <test>).


I don't quite get it, but it looks to me like this got fixed somewhere along the way? Can't reproduce it any more...

Fixed in Basic, but not in Phrase or PlainText. See stop filtering angle brackets in Phrase and PlainText.
