Description Kyrylo Bohdanenko 2013-09-07 12:45:26 UTC

For example there's a song "MY<DSMBR" by Linkin Park. It is displayed like "MY" in Current Track widget.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Play a track with (html?) special characters in the name (e.g. Foo<Bar)
Actual Results:  
Current track displays name 'Foo'

Expected Results:  
Current track should display 'Foo<Bar'

Seems like there's an HTML special chars escaper missing in Current Track widget.

Don't suppress html tag like characters.

Example: "MY<DSMBR" by Linkin Park was shown as "MY".
