+  # Used as a buffer for views
+  #
+  # The main difference between this and ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer
+  # is for the methods `<<` and `safe_expr_append=` the inputs are
+  # checked for nil before they are assigned and `to_s` is called on
+  # the input. For example:
+  #
+  #   obuf = ActionView::OutputBuffer.new "hello"
+  #   obuf << 5
+  #   puts obuf # => "hello5"
+  #
+  #   sbuf = ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer.new "hello"
+  #   sbuf << 5
+  #   puts sbuf # => "hello\u0005"
