From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx> Avoid trouble with the properties reported in the xml reports by translating xml-tricky characters in the property values into their xml entity equivalents. IOWs, if someone sets a property "NAME" to the value 'BOBBY"; DROP TABLES;', the xml will be formatted: <property name="NAME" value="BOBBY"; DROP TABLES;"/> Thus avoiding XML problems.
