```
Do not use esc_html in esc_path subroutine to avoid double quoting;
expand esc_html body (except quoting) in esc_path.

Move esc_path before quot_cec and quot_upr. Add some comments.

I do not remember looking at it deeply, so probably it was just
lost in the noise.

Unless there was a list discussion that was unfavorable, that
is; but I do not recall one and the patch looks sane.

There was no discussion, so probably the patch was just lost in the 
noise. It happens.
