Upgrading the code to PHP5 is possible - the package is not stable yet.
If the package was stable already, we'd have to keep backward
compatibility (BC) and had to start a HTML_Safe2 package. But luckily,
this is not needed.
So you can go on with that. Please open a feature request for that and
attach the patch. Notify us about it on pear-dev and we'll review it.
Same for the other patch you mentioned.
