Public bug reported:

13.04 is where this functionality broken.  I've been using an application that 
does some pretty spectacular graphing/visualization using QtWebKit by inserting 
DIV's and modifying them using appendInside().
12.04 and 12.10 do not exhibit this problem.

I'm not certain if this is a problem with QT 4.8.4 (12.10 uses 4.8.3) or if 
this is a problem with python-qt4 4.10.0 (12.10 uses 4.9.3).
If I filter all the & characters before appendInsert-ing them, all works well 
(but layout is atrocious without the use of  ).

If I create a QString, I can get the data into the QString, but
appendInsert( QString ) still doesn't work.

Did libqt4 code include a new filter or something else that breaks with
"&" symbols?

Basically, if I allow the code to do QWebElement.appendInside("something
with a & symbol")  it's like I never called appendInside at all.
Nothing changes.

Help?
