As for the quotes thing - i meant sending the slash along with it, so
the rendered, parse, printed, whatever text would _look_ like

onclick="function(\"xxx\");"   more or less a work around

I agree that it needs to be something specific.. I think escape needs
to be mixed - that way it would be backwards compatible..

echo $this->Form->button('<button>', array('onClick' =>
'function(\'xxx
\')', 'escape' => true));

would still work OR

echo $this->Form->button('<button>', array('onClick' =>
'function(\'xxx
\')', 'escape' => array('name') ));

To specify WHAT gets escaped.  - if array, defaults to false for all
others.

Kind of like containable does..
