default modifiers vs. foreach & if

HELLO EVERYONE.

I JUST TRIED TO USE THIS NICE FEATURE OF SMARTY:  
HTTP://SMARTY.PHP.NET/MANUAL/EN/VARIABLE.DEFAULT.MODIFIERS.P
HP
I THINK THAT AUTO-ESCAPING OF ALL VALUES WHEN OUTPUTTING
THEM IS A GREAT  
IDEA, SO I SET $THIS->DEFAULT_MODIFIERS =
ARRAY('ESCAPE:"HTML"');

IT WORKED NICE UNTIL I TRIED TO USE FOREACH TO ITERATE OVER
ARRAY OF  
ARRAYS. I GOT LOTS OF MESSAGES LIKE THIS:
WARNING: HTMLSPECIALCHARS() EXPECTS PARAMETER 1 TO BE
STRING, ARRAY  
GIVEN...

THE SAME WARNINGS WERE DISPLAYED WHEN USING "{IF
$ARRAY}".

I LOOKED INTO COMPILED TEMPLATES AND FOUND THAT SMARTY
APPLIES DEFAULT  
MODIFIERS TO ALL PARAMETERS OF FOREACH, INCLUDING
"FROM=$ARRAY_OF_ARRAYS",  
AND THIS GENERATES WARNING.

HIDING WARNINGS IS A BAD PRACTICE, SO I'M LOOKING FOR
ANOTHER SOLUTION FOR  
THIS PROBLEM. BY NOW I HACKED _COMPILE_FOREACH_START AND
_COMPILE_IF_TAG  
SO THAT DEFAULT_MODIFIERS ARE TOGGLED OFF IN THE BEGINNING
AND RESTORED AT  
THE END OF METHODS. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS ONLY PARTIAL
SOLUTION.

CAN ANYONE, HAVING DEEPER KNOWLEDGE OF SMARTY COMPILER,
SUGGEST BETTER WAY  
TO FIX THIS?
OR SHOULD I WRITE ABOUT MY PROBLEM TO DEV LIST?

Hey.

I am not able to reproduce this. Could you please submit a
working
sample? And yes, this should go to the dev list if you think
its a bug.

Bye.
