 For instance, if you upload a file with a title '''xxx'"><''' and send it
 to the editor with Linked to Page option, you will get inconsistent
 published results like below.

 '''Firefox with visual rich editor'''[[BR]]
 1st time, seems ok.
 {{{
 <a href="http://yoursite.com/wordpress/archives/1/xxx/" id="p7"
 rel="attachment" class="imagelink" title="xxx&#39;&quot;&gt;&lt;">
 <img src="http://yoursite.com/wordpress/wp-
 content/uploads/somefile.thumbnail.jpg" id="image7"
 alt="xxx&#39;&quot;&gt;&lt;" />
 </a>
 }}}

 2nd time (Simply go edit and save to republish the same thing),
 &quot;&gt;&lt; are removed.
 {{{
 <a href="http://yoursite.com/wordpress/archives/1/xxx/" id="p7"
 rel="attachment" class="imagelink" title="xxx&#39;">
 <img src="http://yoursite.com/wordpress/wp-
 content/uploads/somefile.thumbnail.jpg" id="image7" alt="xxx&#39;" />
 </a>
 }}}

 '''Firefox without visual rich editor'''[[BR]]
 bare single quote
 {{{
 <a id="p7" rel="attachment" class="imagelink"
 href="http://yoursite.com/wordpress/archives/1/xxx/"
 title="xxx'&quot;&gt;&lt;">
 <img id="image7" src="http://yoursite.com/wordpress/wp-
 content/uploads/somefile.thumbnail.jpg" alt="xxx'&quot;&gt;&lt;" />
 </a>
 }}}

 '''Opera without visual rich editor'''[[BR]]
 broken
 {{{
 <a ID="p7" REL="attachment" CLASS="imagelink"
 HREF="http://yoursite.com/wordpress/archives/xxx/"
 ONCLICK="doPopup(7);return false;" TITLE="xxx'
 }}}

 I temporarily forbid html special characters for the file title to avoid
 this mess.
