reported follow-up bug on unknown character references as bug#14945. Since
WebKit is not a validating application, I think the approach to take with
reporting (and then recovering from) a stray ampersand &, would be to simply
throw an exception without changing the DOM tree or the rendering. WebKit could
even treat the stray & as an & as its method of recovery, as long as it
reports the error.
