Comment (by Mick P.):

 Please remember. From an end user point of view, the main problem is
 having to constantly unslash some data that is wanted to be slashed. The
 easiest way to deal with it is to overwrite the data in the array at some
 point, but it has to be after whenever WP does its version of Magic Quotes
 (assuming WP uses the same algorithm as PHP) but to do that you need to be
 certain that WP is doing its MQ, which you cannot assume it always will.
