#6883: special characters in custom smiley shortcuts cause problems
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
Reporter:  chckens  |        Type:  defect      
  Status:  new      |   Component:  pidgin (gtk)
 Version:  2.5.0    |    Keywords:              
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
 Clicking on custom smileys to insert them into a conversation erroneously
 converts some special characters to html character entities.

 Steps to reproduce:
 1. Bring up Custom Smiley Manager (Buddy List, Tools->Smiley)
 2. Choose a suitable image, and type '~:>' as the Smiley Shortcut
 3. Bring up a conversation window, click on Smile! button in toolbar,
 click on the smiley you just defined

 Expected result:
 Smiley is pasted into conversation input area and can be sent to the other
 party.

 Actual result:
 the text '~:>' appears in the conversation input area, and this text is
 sent rather than the picture I wanted to send.
