    initial v1  
    11I'm playing around with some escaping options, and the most elegant (chances are that it is not the most supported) solution is to use `JSON.stringify()` and `JSON.parse()`.

    3 `JSON` is a native JSON encoding/decoding browser feature with IE6> cross-browser support [1]

    5 Other ideas include `encodeURIComponent()` on JS side and `urldecode()`. We can't use `escape()` since there's no straight alternative to decode escaped strings on the PHP side (try this with languages like Tamil[2])

    78The biggest problem though, is that we will need to filter what tags are supported in the caption, where I would stick to basic `span,a,em,strong,del,[insert markup tags here]` (could not find a reason why would someone insert a `<table>` in a caption). For this we will definitely need a textarea instead of existing input type field and a UI markup editor, which is an unanswered question atm (both MCE and quicktags do not fit, unless we leave textarea use plain HTML).
