+* Raw template handler (which is also the default template handler in Rails 5) now outputs
+ HTML-safe strings.
+
+ In Rails 5 the default template handler was changed to the raw template handler. Because
+ the ERB template handler escaped strings by default this broke some applications that
+ expected plain JS or HTML files to be rendered unescaped. This fixes the issue caused
+ by changing the default handler by changing the Raw template handler to output HTML-safe
+ strings.

* `select_tag`'s `include_blank` option for generation for blank option tag, now adds an empty space label,
when the value as well as content for option tag are empty, so that we confirm with html specification.
