Description:
------------
We had a conversation on the google group as follows, relating to the possibility of generating xml without the necessary escaping:


Hi Caroline,
well spotted. There are places in both the wsdl generation and in the xmlrpc binding that we generate xml by simply sticking strings together ( I searched for "</" ).

We should probably edit the variables that we are using to make sure they don't contain dodgy characters. I think they are only ever values that we pull out of the annotations e.g. from @param and so forth, but we should be careful. I will raise a pecl bug to track it.
