Comment (by westi):

 So the underlying issue here is that we use ent2ncr to convert named
 entities to numeric ones for XML and then do the HTML escaping which
 converts {{{–}}} to {{{–}}}.

 So we need to apply this CDATA change to all the places we do this in
 feeds or change the order in which we do this filtering so that the named
 entities that esc_html santizes too will still be encoded.
