Wordpress Adds Slashes to $_GET, $_POST, $_COOKIE & $_REQUEST

For those of you who are making wordpress plugins and themes, you may notice that Wordpress 3.0 now basically runs magic_quotes on $_POST, $_GET, $_REQUEST, and $_COOKIE. I am not sure WHY they are doing this, even PHP has deprecated such behavior but there you have it. I wrote up a little function you can include in your code that will undo this when you call it:

Code:
 function remove_wp_magic_quotes()
    {
        $_GET    = stripslashes_deep($_GET);
        $_POST   = stripslashes_deep($_POST);
        $_COOKIE = stripslashes_deep($_COOKIE);
        $_REQUEST = stripslashes_deep($_REQUEST);
    }
Enjoy...
