After some thoughts, I'm no longer sure that this is a correct change. The user 
can use this for highlighting the part of the column header, adding links or 
images, displaying complex multiline headers. I suspect that this change will 
break some existing code that uses difflib.HtmlDiff.make_table() properly, 
passing escaped strings.

I think now that this change should be reverted, and we should document instead 
that "fromdesc" and "todesc" are interpreted as an HTML text, and user data 
should be properly escaped for using in headers.
