accent marks in Candela page/part titles make ThinCCs fail (at least in Blackboard)

[xolotl]

Importing a course that has accent marks in a page title (eg, Résumé) generates an error in Bb:

An error has occurred. The error recorded is:
The provided file could not be identified as a supported package format and therefore can not be processed.
For more information, see the detailed log.

The resulting ThinCC has XML in it like:

<item identifier="I_865_116" identifierref="R_865_116">
         <title>R&eacute;sum&eacute;</title>
</item>

Workaround: don’t put accent marks in page/part titles (eg, use Resume, not Résumé).
