Description
Would it be possible to configure liquid to make escaping opt out instead of opt in with the escape filter?
We have had problems with escaping being missed when implementing. If it escapes everything by default its harder to miss and you make an active choice to not escape potentially risky outputs.
React for example escape all output by default

Research direction
Start with the escape filter documentation linked in the issue, then trace how Liquid currently handles rendered output and configuration. The issue names no source files or tests, so first clarify the opt-out configuration and expected behavior; done means default output is escaped while an explicit opt-out remains possible and is covered by tests.
