As I said in my original report, I already tried this...

   One or more XML syntax errors were found ......
   ....
   Entity 'tilde' not defined

I also had tried to use  &#7E;

   xmlParseCarRef: invalid xmlChar value 0


In other words, not only are tilde's expanded when they shouldn't be
(in the middle of a quoted argument) but openbox does not follow 
normal XML syntax rules either!
