Hi Dmitry,

I understand that real_escape.... blabla () escapes more characters.  
What I don't understand is why more characters are dangerous? For all  
of TYPO3s live we have put binary and what else data into the  
database without a single problem using addslashes() (for mysql of  
course). Surely all bytes have been tested. Is it combination of  
bytes or what? The fact is, it never failed and noone have given an  
example of where addslashes() will fail. All they say is that  
real_escape...() is better. Not good enough for me.
