We are finding that for certain situations it would be useful for the 
portlet to be able to specify which ampersand (&, &amp;) form to use for 
a given URL. This is important when using consumer rewriting.

In particular when using XHTML (see below). I would like to discuss this 
on the call tomorrow.

Additionally, this will allow WSRP producer implementations of JSR-286 
to guarantee compliance with its ampersand requirements.

Thanks,

Nate

I would like to be able to produce something like this:
<script><![CDATA[
   var url=/consumer?id=1&type=2
   ...
]]></script>
<a href="/consumer?id=1&amp;type=2">Click Me</a>
