 > Also interesting to know if this is a regression or not.
 I confirm it's a regression from 1.9. Just checked 1.9.2, and in
 {{{BP_XProfile_Field->render_admin_form_children()}}} the value was
 stripslashed:
 {{{
 <input type="text" name="<?php echo esc_attr( $type ); ?>_option[<?php
 echo esc_attr( $j ); ?>]" id="<?php echo esc_attr( $type ); ?>_option<?php
 echo esc_attr( $j ); ?>" value="<?php echo stripslashes( esc_attr(
 $options[$i]->name ) ); ?>" />
 }}}

 > In theory, we should not be saving slashed data in the first place

 Well a filter is available so we can stripslash the array of options
 before saving it to db.
 see 5704.02.patch
