I remember that I used something like formatting-instruction.
see :
formatting-instruction
    This is an atomic flow object that inserts characters into the 
output without change. It supports the following non-inherited 
characteristic:
    data
        This is the string to be inserted.
    It differs from normal data characters in the &, < and > will not 
be escaped.
Anyway, I did not use this for a while.

For those using Unix/Linux or cygwin, there remains the possibilty to 
insert some special chain and to change it afterwards using sed (or awk 
or another shell command).

(element TEST
   (make element gi: "OUTPUT"
      (string-append "Starsky " "JAECKLAAMPERSAND" " Hutch")
   )
)

cat output.html | sed 's!JAECKLAAMPERSAND!&!g' > real_output.html

This is very ugly, I know, but it can help.
