This is a link to <a href="http://www.artefactual.com>Artefactual</a> Systems.
- Save the description - confirm that the HTML is escaped, as per #7647
- Flip the interface to another language, e.g. French
- Enter edit mode, and navigate to the same text box
- HTML is not escaped inside the source text provided for context above the French text box
- HTML content is escaped everywhere in the edit and view pages (except for static pages)
