YouTube showing repr() of a tuple

I'd heard that YouTube uses Python, but it's fun to see proof of that,
even if it comes in the form of a minor bug.

But their web frontend is (probably) in php:

Both fixed by the time I managed to follow the links.

There wasn't much to see, and putting apostrophes into the input
didn't seem to cause "proper" repr() behaviour. So I suspect that the
Python resemblance was coincidental.

The apostrophes were being HTML-escaped (into ') before repr() was
called. The second example I found used a Unicode character, and caused
YouTube to show the repr() of a Unicode string, escape codes and all.
