Description

When the user enters HTML named entities in the body of his post, they are transmitted as-is in the RSS and RDF descriptions. While numeric entities are valid in any XML format, named entities are bound to a DTD, and make the RSS / RDF feeds broken, at least in some agregators.
(see a "bug report" along these lines: http://wordpress.org/support/topic.php?id=19421)

Wordpress should make sure not to output named entities in this context.
