Comment:

 I missed this been opened a couple of years ago, ticket #33924 exists
 previously and hit the roadblock mentioned above: that modifying how the
 classes are sanitized could cause backward compatibility breakages.

 A similar suggestion was made at the time, using a second parameter to
 toggle between permissive and strict escaping.

 I'm going to close this as a duplicate so discussion can continue on
 #33924 and focus on a single ticket. I'm sorry it's taken some time for
 this to happen.
