Bug: Verbatim tag should escape HTML entities

Text enclosed in <verbatim> tags should be shown verbatim, e.g. "as is". I noticed that HTML entities like   do not get escaped.

Test case

Named entities:
  nbsp:   " "
  iexcl:  "¡"
  cent:   "¢"
Character reference:
  #160:   " "
  #161:   "¡"
  #162:   "¢"
HTML tags are OK:
  <b>bold</b>

This should be shown as nbsp:  " " etc.
