 Looks like #8146 was not fixed, or is back again.

 To reproduce:
 * Add a tag with a HTML entity in the name, such as `½`.
 * Use Quick Edit on the tag page or Quick Edit on the Posts page, and the
 special character will be shown instead of the `½`.
 * If you save the tag or post, a new tag with the character is created
 (instead of using the one with the spelled out entity).

 I'm unsure of whether the special characters should be in the slug, but my
 test showed it was.
