Right now, the capacity to override HTML-escaping of strings globally isn't documented. Not only that, but the end of the main issue where this is discussed #244 proposes a solution that got implemented, but with a name that's slightly different from the actual user-facing name. (The proposed solution is to overwrite
Mustache.escapeHTML, but the actual name that client-facing code has to override isMustache.escape--- which is only discovered if you dig down further and find #307.This capacity is super-useful, especially when combined with custom delimiters (where triple-mustache won't work). For example, I'm using Mustache to template LaTeX right now, and the capacity to override escaping globally is essential to keep me from going nuts.
This PR just adds a line documenting this behavior.
