Review follow-up to the base64→entity-XML content= switch. The whole mxfile XML
now lives in one content="..." attribute; XML attribute-value normalization
collapses a LITERAL tab/newline/CR to a single space on DOM read (jsdom and the
real draw.io editor alike), silently flattening multi-line labels and
tab-bearing values that the old base64 form stored verbatim.
Finding 1 (data-loss): both encode paths — buildDrawioSvg's xmlEscape (mcp) and
the import service's escape — now append 	/
/
 after the four
&<>" replaces (numeric char-refs survive normalization, as draw.io's own export
does). The extractContentAttr regex fallback now decodes those char-refs (hex
case-insensitive plus decimal 	/ / ) so it agrees with the DOM path;
& stays decoded last so an escaped &#x9; reads back as literal text.
Finding 2 (dedup): the server's private xmlEscapeAttr is replaced by the shared
htmlEscape helper (& < > " ' — a strict superset, the extra ' is harmless in a
"-delimited value) wrapped in xmlEscapeContent, which adds the three control-char
char-refs on top (htmlEscape does not escape them).
Finding 3 (docs): narrow the CHANGELOG healing claim — only a diagram still
holding its original correct-UTF-8 base64 (not yet opened/autosaved) is
recoverable; one already opened in the editor persisted mojibake at rest and its
text is lost.
Tests: new mcp round-trip test with literal tab/newline/CR in a value (DOM path,
byte-stable) plus a fallback-branch test forcing a malformed wrapper so both
decode paths are proven to agree; new server spec asserting char-ref encoding.
Mutation-checked: dropping the encode replaces reddens both new mcp tests;
dropping only the fallback decode reddens just the fallback test.
