bogus stripping of quotes

           Summary: bogus stripping of quotes
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5.2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: elkner@linofee.org


Assuming:

<target name="setAltTodoTaglet" unless="ToDoTaglet.available">
    <property name="tag"
        value="&lt;div class=\&quot;todo\&quot;&gt;To Do:&lt;/div&gt;"/>
    <property name="todoParam"
        value="-tag todo:a:&quot;${tag}&quot;"/>
</target>

and

<javadoc ... additionalparam="-breakiterator ${todoParam}"/>

ant does 

...
  [javadoc] '-breakiterator'
  [javadoc] '-tag'
  [javadoc] 'todo:a:<div class=\todo\>To Do:</div>'
...

So, ant strips out any quotes unconditionally and javadoc produces unusable
results ... :(
