 I upgraded to 2.3 yesterday and discovered that HTML elements and entities
 in blog posts get an extra layer of entity-encoding before being presented
 in the non-WYSIWYG edit box.  If you click "Save," the encoding remains
 and they're not HTML elements anymore.  In other words, <b>this</b>
 becomes &lt;b&rt;this&lt;/b&rt; (and then renders in the blog as
 <b>this</b> when what I really wanted was '''this''').
