Thanks for the report. Unfortunately, I don't think I can justify outputting
known
erroneous data. Use of the ampersand entity should have zero effect on the
display of
the data. Can you elaborate on why this is a problem? Your use case may inspire
me.

In my application, we store the data entered by the user (after validating with
antisamy) in the DB. and then when we display is back , the user is '&' instead
of '&' which looks bad in the UI (as the data is populated from DB)
If this could be configurable that would be of great advantage.
One more thing, i couldn't find details about the policy file any where.

Hi Guys,
This is a real issue for us as well. Is there no workaround for this?
Thanks
