The “Quick Draw McGraw” beta update fixes a handful of problems introduced in the 2.0b35 “Back in the Saddle” update. This new version includes all of the new features and fixes in v2.0b35, but addresses the following issues:

• Fixes an intermittent crashing bug (“insecure path” error).
• Strips out <font> tags submitted in rich-text fields.
• Adds a “remove formatting” button to the rich-text editor in short-format fields like page descriptions.
