 line 1188 of `/wp-admin/includes/template.php` consists of this line:

 `$title = esc_attr( get_the_title( $post->ID ) );`

 `$title` is later stored to the title text field in the quick edit form
 for posts.

 The problem with this structure is that any filtering done by plugins on
 the `the_title` hook  is saved to the database via the quick edit form –
 creating destructive change that is not reversed when the plugin is
 deactivated.

 Please consider using `the_title_attribute` or a direct db call so that
 the `the_title` hook is not called.
