message mark_safe and redirect results in message still showiing with encoded tags

[Leon van der Ree]

Hello all,

I think I have found a bug, but this time I am not completely sure, so
I post it first in this group.

What I want to do is set an error message in the message-queue and
show this to the user after a redirect. Something pretty common I
guess. So I have the following code:

            messages.error(request, mark_safe('<p>some text</p>'))
            return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse("intro"))

I know at this time the message is safe, so I mark it as safe. I don't
want to do this in my template of course, since I don't know if all my
messages are safe.

However, it seems that the redirect removes the safe_marking around my
message! since the result I get in my browser is html-encoded!

I did a test and added

    messages.info(request, mark_safe('<p>some other text</p>'));

in my controller, and now I get the following result

    &lt;p&gt;some other text&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;p&gt;some text&lt;/p&gt;
    <p>some other text</p>

So as you can clearly see the two messages before the redirect have
lost their safe-state, while the last message shows up as expected.

Am I missing something, or why do I seems the only one mentioning this
problem? (I don't see anything on the net regarding this issue).
