Comment:

 Oh actually this is entirely a Javascript issue.

 The `<input>`'s `value` is correct -- it's only escaped once. `esc_attr()`
 is rightly not double escaping it.

 If you disable Javascript and then disable CSS (so you can see the
 collapsed input), then you can see it working correctly.

 However when the Javascript pulls the value out of the HTML and fills the
 field in with it or whatever it does, it's not decoding HTML entities
 which causes the issue.
