Description

Problem description

When using a control character (e.g. \n) inside XML with Alloy 1.2.1, the character is escaped and shown in the text.

Steps to reproduce

Use the following code in index.xml: 
<Alloy>
  <Window>
    <Label id="label" text="Click me to open\n\nan Image"></Label>
  </Window>
</Alloy>
Running the code on iPhone, I can see \n\n in the text. With Alloy 1.2.0 the new line is shown as a new line.

    [~dcassenti] I believe this is a duplicate of ALOY-813. Can you try running this sample against the 1_2_X branch of Alloy on Github and see if it resolves the error. You can install it straight from github like this: 
       sudo npm install -g git://github.com/appcelerator/alloy.git#1_2_X
