[Bug 1520011] Re: copying and pasting text with quots is displaying as '" Note" '

 

In some places, eg feedback on a page, the message for the email is saved in the db all escaped so
& = &
" = "
etc

But when we go to display it we escape it again so

& = &
" = &quotquot;

We need to unescape the string before re-escaping and displaying it to
avoid double escape
