I don't think we have that combination unfortunately. There might be
some tricks to do that but I can't think of one right now.
Right now the only syntax to not execute velocity scripts is the code
macro and it was a very hard thing to implement (with some hacks). But
the code macro doesn't let the HTML code through.
So I think the solution (before the v2 architecture) would be to:
1) Add an escape macro.
2) Add some parameters:
{escape:escapeVelocity=true/false | escapeGroovy=true/false |
escapeHTML=true/false | escapeRadeox=true/false}
3) Make the code macro synonymous to
{escape:escapeVelocity=true | escapeGroovy=true | escapeHTML=true|
escapeRadeox=true}
It's not obvious to implement but doable. However who has the
knowledge and time to implement it? :)
