Either it leaves them as is, or it escapes them as < and such (unless you are using something like <#escape x as ''>, but why would you). So look into to this closer. Are you 100% sure the part with the bad characters aren't present in the output if you look at the output as raw text (but not with something overly smart like FireBug, that parses the HTML and then shows a new fake HTML source), not rendered in the browser? Regarding <#escape ...>...<#nested>...</#escape>. That #escape call doesn't affect the template part that you invoke with #nested. That's because, by design, #escape has only effect on the interpolations that are inside in it in the source code. It has no runtime effect.
