Well, I hacked H::FIF ...

sub escapeHTMLStringOrList {
  my ($self, $toencode) = @_;

  # CHANGED TO NO-OP BC WE DO OUR OWN ESCAPING OF ALL PARAMS
  return $toencode;

  if (ref($toencode) eq 'ARRAY') {
    foreach my $elem (@$toencode) {
      $elem = $self->escapeHTML($elem);
    }
    return $toencode;
  } else {
    return $self->escapeHTML($toencode);
  }
}
