Title: best_in_place modifications to allow editing html special characters

I couldn't see a simpler way to escape/unescape <, > and & characters (which are essential for lookup mappings) when performing inline edits with best_in_place.

I had to add a new option and make a couple of small incisions to the javascript.

Forking the original gem is obviously not an ideal solution. Perhaps if we upgrade to the latest version of rails (and can use the latest version of best_in_place) this shameful workaround will no longer be required.
