Description
I have a select2 field that's loading SVGs as options. This still works fine, however the selected svg is escaped so you visually see HTML.
I'm loading the svg's via a sprite like this:
<svg class="mai-icon-svg"><use xlink:href="https://maitheme.local/success-business/wp-content/plugins/mai-icons/icons/sprites/light.svg#pencil-ruler"></use></svg><span class="mai-icon-name">pencil-ruler</span>
It looks like the escaping may be happening via JS so I'm not sure where dig to fix. Thanks y'all.

Research direction
The report identifies a select2 field and SVG/HTML markup, but no repository files or tests. Start by tracing the JavaScript rendering and escaping path for the selected option; done means the selected SVG renders visually instead of displaying escaped HTML, while existing option behavior remains intact.
