In Smarty-like templates using numerical versions of "{}" is sometimes needed for adding JavaScript in templates code. Example:

  <input type="button" onclick="showHide(&#123;element:this, default:'show'&#125;)">

So in HTML files "&#123;" should be treated as "{" and &#125; as "}".

Not a bug, more like enhancement if any. 

I think you can (with Smarty 3) use following just fine

  <input type="button" onclick="showHide({ element:this, default:'show' })">

adding whitespace before/after (I'm not sure if both or just after { and before } ) should prevent Smarty from interpreting it as a Smarty code
