Is there a way to make xmllint not translate entities?
I'm just running xmllint --format on a file and it's translating things

  the 5 prefefined entities from the XML specification are *always*
replaced by their defined character based on what I know from the
set of parser arounds. This will be converted back by libxml2 only
when needed at serialization time.
