This is a follow-up commit for commit
6dbf103e10 ("Use html.escape instead
removed cgi.escape"), which breaks the python2 backward compatibility
(since the "html" module is not available by default) and also breaks
the code in general (due to missing html imports).
The fix is based on the proposed fix in [1].
Fixes: boo#1166537 ("osc rq accept - forwarding request causes backtrace")
