i don't think i'd see that as a bug...i think the function exists to
safely format content being passed to a JS function. this, it does.
i'm sure i'll be corrected if i'm wrong...but i don't think
'</script>' as a string is often passed as an argument to a function.
I would say that escaping that string would be beyond the defined
scope of the jsStringFormat() function, and therefore not in and of
itself, a bug.
