[WP][SR] Add email obfuscator to core

We have a contrib module that does this, but since WordPress has a function for this in core, I'm wondering if we could/should too...?

I'm guessing most users setting up a Backdrop site wouldn't know to install Invisimail to protect email addresses entered in textareas.

(Triaged as possible accessibility issue on 08/17/2921. Seems like we are looking for feedback on how to accomplish this without hurting accessibility.)

Thanks, the /tmp folder was the problem. I moved it elsewhere and then the updated worked. Thanks again!

Probably not the reason, but worth to do a quick check: Sometimes the update cache interferes, so if something's odd with updates - some module (or core) claims to have updated, but then...

Nope, not touched any permissions!
