Comment (by F J Kaiser):

 Replying to [comment:7 SergeyBiryukov]:
 > We already have `__(' and ')` string in .pot from `wp_sprintf_l()`, so
 we probably can use it here.

 I'm not too sure how someone would react if they got a site where the
 internal language is defined to be Korean, but the post is written in
 English. Example Title:

     Me & her spend a wonderful weekend together

 URL after the patch converted {{{&}}} to {{{__('and')}}} and therefor to
 Korean: {{{와}}}

 {{{http://my-korean-blog.kr/me-와-her-spend-a-wonderful-weekend-
 together}}}

 Very sure that it would be better to simply replace an ampersand with a
 dash.
