Steps to reproduce

  1. Starting at URL: https://wordpress.com/post/ on a simple site
  2. Enter a post title including an & symbol
  3. Publish post
  4. Title within editor shows & instead of &, but displays & normally on the published post

What I expected

Ampersand character to remain in title display within editor.

What happened instead

Ampersand expressed as code instead in title display within editor. This does not happen on the live post, it's just within the editor.

Browser / OS version

Chrome / MacOS 10.15.6

Context / Source

User reported this issue in chat. They had also encountered it occurring with apostrophes in titles, but I was not able to replicate that in testing. Does not occur on atomic sites.
