*
* Though the ">" character is escaped for symmetry, characters like
* ">" and "/" don't need escaping in HTML and have no special meaning
* unless they're part of a tag or unquoted attribute value. See
* [Mathias Bynens's article](https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/ambiguous-ampersands)
* (under "semi-related fun fact") for more details.
*
* When working with HTML you should always
* [quote attribute values](http://wonko.com/post/html-escaping) to reduce
* XSS vectors.
