XSLTC: Multi-byte characters improperly handled when output method is HTML

           Summary: XSLTC: Multi-byte characters improperly handled when
                    output method is HTML
           Product: XalanJ2
           Version: 2.3
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: Other
         Component: org.apache.xalan.xsltc
        AssignedTo: xalan-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: derek.sayeau@cognos.com


XSLTC unnecessarily encodes UTF-8 characters in attributes other than those 
specified in the HTML 4.0 spec, which results in mangled data in the output
page.

>From the XSLT1.0 spec:
The html output method should escape non-ASCII characters in URI attribute 
values using the method recommended in Section B.2.1 of the HTML 4.0 
Recommendation.

I'll take a look at this...
