            Description

            When writing stories that contain example tables with Māori macrons, there seems to be some double escaping of these characters happening in the output HTML files.

            For Example, given the following scenario:
            Scenario: Māori Macron support
            Given some condition
            When I do something
            Then I expect to see a macron in the HTML table below:

            Example-Title
            Māori macron should show on this line

            ample-Title
            I would expect the characters to render as seen in the text file, however I see the following in the HTML output:

            Then I expect to see a macron in the HTML table below:
            Ex
            Māori macron should show on this line

            ā is the escape character for this particular macron, and the HTML source for this line shows the double escape:
            <tr><td>M&#257;ori macron should show on this line</td></tr>
