[Exist-open] BUG: Non-well-formed XML serialization

[Lenz, E. <le...@se...>]

Index the following document:

<test att="&quot;in quotes&quot;" />

The serialized result of an HTTP GET request is not well-formed (in 0.7.1 as
well as 0.8beta). The quotes in attribute values are not escaped:

<test exist:id="1" exist:source="/db/library/buggy.xml"
xmlns:exist="http://exist.sourceforge.net/NS/exist" att=""in
quotes""></test>

I'm pretty impressed overall with eXist so far, but this rather basic
serialization flaw is making me wary of using it in my project. Is there any
particular reason why an existing serializer wasn't used (e.g. the one that
comes with Xerces)?

Thanks,
Evan
