When I sumbit a form which contains a textarea containing the quote character, the form variable generated in
the submitted script contains an escaped quote.  This didn't happen in PHP3, and I'm not
sure when it appeard in PHP4, as I've only used 4.0.6.

An example can be seen on www.php.net:
Enter a string containing quotes in the text search box.  The resulting page will contain
multiple backslashes around the quotes.

Ah - it looks like magic_quotes_gpc is now defaults to on.  Should it?
