Thanks for this. I think the suggestion looks useful but I have a couple of
concerns. Not only do we break the Formatter interface, we also break the
behaviour for those upgrading. If people have applications which already escape
the content (eg before or after calling highlighter), when they upgrade to the
proposed new version their content will be double-escaped. They will also incur
 the additional performance overhead for encoding where it may not be required
(Note: could initialize htmlEncode's StringBuffer to at least 
plainText.length()) . 
I guess we could add a flag to the html-based formatters which allows the user
to turn encoding on or off. Will the htmlEncode function you've defined work for
more exotic character sets eg CKY?


Cheers
Mark
