 *
 * Though the ">" character is escaped for symmetry, characters like
 * ">" and "/" don't need escaping in HTML and have no special meaning
 * unless they're part of a tag or unquoted attribute value. See

 * When working with HTML you should always
 * [quote attribute values](http://wonko.com/post/html-escaping) to reduce
 * XSS vectors.
