[imp] Cool quotes + spellcheck bug

Hrm, Chuck and Jan are both pretty good about reading bug reports, so I 
thought it funny neither of them replied.  Made me wonder if it was just 
a 'magic_quotes' FAQ - but then I tried the demo site, and I also got 
the same strange \\\\" effect there.

In any case, I'd be happy to apply and test a patch; I can't move IMP3 
to production untill I fix this bug. :-(

regards,
