[pLog-svn] ugh. r6488 breaks our good old friends <, >, &lt; in post text

 	I just noticed that due to the htmlDecode call in filterJavascript 
for the postText, it (now, as of rev. 6488) converts &lt; to < (in order 
to catch the tricky javascript coders) and then the < is removed by the 
xhtmlize() call later.
 	I first thought I could put a htmlentities() or htmlspecialchars() 
at the end of filterJavascript(), but that causes all html entities to be 
saved as non-html, ie. all < are converted to &lt;
 	Maybe we do need to switchover to a new filter?

And, please check out the following bug, which is likely the same issue as 
what I just found.  I see that no one has been testing 1.2.9?  Are you all 
still using insecure versions of LT (ie. 1.2.8 or 2.0?)
