Sometimes I have the need to escape everything in octal or hexidecimal
:-)

Seriously, I think HTML and URL escapement is enough for a designer,
anything else can be done at the script level. Should we allow both "no"
or "none"? It shouldn't hurt, it allows a bit of flexibility, and I
doubt we'll ever need "no" or "none" for another purpose here.
