The escaping rules are defined very specifically, and we have to follow them for 
compatability with other XSLT processors 
(see http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#section-HTML-Output-Method for the details). 

As far as I can tell, there is no special provision there for scriptable 
attributes, though there is for scriptable elements and for attributes 
containing URIs.

I don't think that leaves us with a lot of choice in this matter, at least in 
normal operation. If we wanted to create a subclass of the serializer which 
provided this functionality, and make it a custom feature of Xalan (<xsl:output 
mode="xalan_smarter_html"/> or something like that), that might be possible.

So unless I've misssed something, I think we have to knock this down to 
Enhancement
