inline editor borks unicode characters

[Sir Osis of Liver]

If I post this -

test •• test

load it in inline editor and save, it changes to this -

test %u2022%u2022 test

Happens in clean test install and here.

In said thread, this bug was actually compared to a terrorist attack...

Just as an FYI - the same fix is needed for the "why do I have to login twice?" issue:
https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=571384.0

Specifically, this impacts users with multi-byte chars in their passwords.

Will package manager flag an error for script.js if fix is not removed before installing .18 patch?  Remembering things is not something I'm good at.

[shawnb61]

Possibly.  I wouldn't bank on it.  There is risk associated with telling the package manager to ignore errors. 

It is smartest to save a copy of that source w/date before making the changes.

Basically would be looking for pm errors just as a reminder that code had been changed.  Would save backup copy of original in any case.  It's not a major problem, will see what they want to do.

Thanks.
