apply_escapes just calls a filter on output.  You can use built-in
mason filters or custom ones.  RT happens to hook the h one to call
the EscapeUTF8 function in Web.pm, and you can look at what kind of
transform it does.

ProcessColumnMapValue is the method that's used in outputting row data
in ticket listings too, so you can get a sense of where else that code
is run.
