This release is primarily a bugfix release; most notably, it addresses
compatibility issues with recent versions of the Encode perl module.
Notable changes include:

Email
* Cope with Encode version 2.33 and later, which altered their internal
functionality and caused RT to double-encode Subject lines in
outgoing email.
* Fix HTML rendering errors in dashboard emails.
* Fix overzealous quoting around decoded MIME words.

Administration
* In the rights UI, entering the name of a user or group which already
has rights will now correctly select them for rights granting, as if
their name had been selected.
* Display types in the "applies to" dropdown for custom fields in
consistent order
* Paginate the Queues list in the administrative interface into 50
results per page.
* Support for cascading selections with a multiple-select parent.
* Clarify that $ParseNewMessageForTicketCcs only applies to new, and
not existing, tickets.
* Clarify how an undefined $RTAddressRegexp is treated, and that it
does not come at any notable performance penalty.

Logging
* Fix verbosity of syslog messages; now only the 'debug' level includes
originating filename and line.
* Include process ID in log messages, for ease of isolation in a
multi-process environment.
* Log the From: address of incoming mail which triggered an error, for
ease of debugging.

Other Bugfixes
* Avoid linking trailing punctuation, or html tags, in URL anchors in
MakeClicky
* Fix the Quick Search (QueueSummary) portlet when non-lowercase statuses are used.
* Show Date and DateTime custom fields in the user's format and time
zone in search results.
* Allow rt-email-group-admin to be passed an email address that RT is
not already aware of.
* Show submitted content from the user on errors in REST submission,
for ease of re-editing and re-submission.
