    My blog title has an ampersand (&) in it. When Live Writer publishes, the little status dialog doesn't escape the character properly, and thus displays it as a space+underscore.

    The bug may surface elsewhere in your UI, but I haven't tested yet. (Windows Media Player is rife with similar ampersand issues - I hope you can raise the bar).

    The blog button/menu at the top right of the UI has the same problem.

    As does the blog name on the far right of the status bar.

    So you can see the blog title rendered incorrectly in 3 places at once when the publish dialog is visible!

    Still ampersand issues all over the WLW UI in the 14.0.8089.726 release.

    Is this code-base dead?
