Here I assume you mean the stuff the kses filter does along with 
stripping of unwanted HTML, right?

Quote handling in GL2 should be transparent to the developer.   Recall 
that all custom SQL goes into a named query file and that the SQL that 
goes in there should use prepared SQL as opposed to the kind of SQL 
found in 1.3.x.  Similarly, Propel handles the retrieval of the data 
into objects so that should be transparent as well.

What else is done here beside path delimiters?

Sounds good.  Anyone want to take a stab at defining the function 
prototypes of the oo-based class?  I'm not sure of all the things we are 
talking about here.
