Right now $escapetool is included via velocity

I don't see any reason why we couldn't change to a VelocityContextInitializer
which adds an extension of escapetool which has:
$escapetool.xwiki1(String)
$escapetool.xwiki2(String)
I'm not sure it has to do with escapetool (at least for xwiki/2.0 and other new
rendering syntaxes). I think it has more to do with the rendering module since it's
the rendering module which defines the escaping rules (for xwiki/2.0 and other syntaxes,
except for syntax 1.0 which is in the old rendering). In addition it would need to be
generic, something like
$services.rendering.escape(text, syntax)
I agree with the idea of generic but too much typing and nobody will ever use it, opting
to be insecure instead.
Also I'm -.5 to the idea if it means separating it from the other functions of
escapetool.
BTW I haven't followed this thread but what are the needs? It sounds a bit strange to
have to output wiki syntax through velocity.
People want user supplied content to be spliced into a page without effecting the wiki
output.
We use escapetool to escape XML and URLs. this would just add more features to it.
Another need is to make escapetool.xml escape { so that user content cannot jailbreak an
html macro.
Thanks

Although it would be cleaner I'm resistant
to:
$escapetool.xwiki.syntax20(String)
or the like because vulnerability is easier than security so we should
make security as easy (to type) as possible.
I'm not sure when I'll have time to do this but I don't think it'd take
more
than a few hours.
WDYT?

You haven't checked
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/XWikiSyntax#HEscapes ;)
This
doesn't fix your problem. What about
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/DevGuide/API/xwiki-core-2.3.1-…
?
Hope this helps,
Marius
