    Description

      Ampersand characters (&) in the XML Text block are turned into & incorrectly on content publish.

      The issue seems to be with structHandler for element #text in the ezxmlinputhandler in eZ Publish Legacy.

      Before it is called the ampersands are correct.

      XML before callOutputHandler structHandler for element #text <kernel-datatype-ezxmltext>:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<section xmlns:image="http://ez.no/namespaces/ezpublish3/image/" xmlns:xhtml="http://ez.no/namespaces/ezpublish3/xhtml/" xmlns:custom="http://ez.no/namespaces/ezpublish3/custom/">
<paragraph>&amp;&lt;&gt;</paragraph>
<paragraph/></section>

      But after it the ampresands get turned into html entities again breaking content.

       XML after callOutputHandler structHandler for element #text <kernel-datatype-ezxmltext>:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<section xmlns:image="http://ez.no/namespaces/ezpublish3/image/" xmlns:xhtml="http://ez.no/namespaces/ezpublish3/xhtml/" xmlns:custom="http://ez.no/namespaces/ezpublish3/custom/">
<paragraph>
<line xmlns:tmp="http://ez.no/namespaces/ezpublish3/temporary/" tmp:new-element="true">
&amp;amp;&amp;lt;&amp;gt;
</line>
</paragraph>
<paragraph/></section>

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Log on to admin
      2. Create a new object from a class that has an XML Text block attribute
      3. In the Rich editor type in &<>
      4. Send to publish
      5. View the newly created object and check the XML Text attribue
        • You will see 
          &amp;&lt;&gt;

          instead of &<>
