Description

published on {{ object.pub_date|date:"jS o\f F" }}

Shows published on 9th o8:28 January

I was expecting the same behaviour as now, since that's what the documentation says...

BTW

It is the {% now "jS o\f F" %}

Shows It is the 10th of January

I am taking the liberty of setting the Severity to "blocker" since I wouldn't want to see this on a production enviroment :)

The cause appears to be the fact that the FilterExpression init method
strips out the '\' from constant args, so by the time the format string
gets to the format call, the format string has been modified to "js of F".

Anyone know why this is done?
