RE: Why "EntityReference not supported for WBXML" ?

Hmm don't know if I get it correctly or if you get my question
correctly. 

The XML document Im tring to encode to WBXML contains escaped sequences
and those seem to be left escaped by the kXML reader so the WBXML
serializer is throwing runtime excpetion. The characters must be encoded
in the XML as they would be illegal there but couldn't the
WBXMLSerializer reassamble the unescaped char back? 

Am I really of track? If yes I should read your code again, is been a
while since I read it last time.

Thanks,
Bogdan
