Since the five pre-defined XML entities are used to define character entities and tags they need to be "escaped" if they're used as regular characters. I.e. they need to be written as entities. For example, single ampersands need to be inserted as & in Code View mode. (If you enter an ampersand in Book View mode, Sigil'll automatically convert it to an entity.)
