 > I just realized that my argument wasn't very good.  People talking about
 shortcodes will probably also enclose examples in `<code>` blocks, which
 we already don't texturize.  In conclusion: I'm not sure what the expected
 behavior is.

 Works for me because:
 * The old texturize treated escaped and un-escaped shortcodes the same.
 * shortcodes.php parses escaped and un-escaped shortcodes the same way.
 * miqro-12690.2.patch would have altered the shortcode input by
 texturizing escaped codes.
 * Now we can make sure escaped codes get treated just like HTML comments.

 Patch updated again.  The previous was a bit rushed.
