Isn't there a chance to configure an exception for &foo; tags?  I
sometimes use &auml; for ä and something like this and I don't like
WML to convert this to &amp;auml; which doesn't make sense.

If c.2 means, that &auml; is converted to &amp;auml; by default, I
personally prefer c.1.  Otherwise correct HTML would be converted to
broken HTML by default and IMHO correct HTML should keep correct HTML
when piped through wml.

Tschoeeee
