#1067 Template editing improperly escapes brackets
In system -> LaTex Templates -> Invoice (as well as the HTML versions), after clicking the Edit button, you can edit templates. However, <>& characters are all escaped with HTML entities.
When attempting to save to see if they got double-escaped, I got a permission denied.

This is a dojo issue. Apparently the textarea widget escapes these. Without Dojo/JS everything works. Ideas? Should I just blacklist this textarea?
Hmm, I'm not seeing any quick fixes here -- I wonder if dijit/Editor might handle this better, using divs instead of textarea...
For now I think until we get something working using the divs and Editor I will blacklist the widget by adding an Editor class that gets ignored for purposes of instantiation. that way it can fall back to a basic textarea.
I will say that I de-escape them on re-entry because of the obvious issues, but that might not be desirable if we solve the escaping issue.
