Funny thing is that both functions '''stripslashes_deep()''' the meta_value so I kind of remain slash-less in the process.


{{{
update_post_meta(1, 'new_meta_key', ""x\\\\y""); // Adds 'xy' instead of 'x\y'
}}}


Am I missing something? This internal slashes abuse scares me. I can't come up with a fix because this slashes fetish is beyond me.

Thanks.
