Description of problem: The new About tab shows a mess if the existing text has Seam formatting. e.g compare the About tab text for zanata-server with https://translate.zanata.org/zanata/project/view/zanata-server Perhaps either convert the old Seam text to markdown somehow or render detected old Seam text entries as a Seam object. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dev How reproducible: Easy always
Pull request: https://github.com/zanata/zanata-server/pull/421
The new About editor links to http://docs.jboss.org/richfaces/latest_3_3_X/en/devguide/html/rich_editor.html#d0e33077 as a markup reference, but it might be better to link to http://docs.jboss.org/seam/2.3.1.Final/reference/html/text.html
VERIFIED with Zanata 3.4.0-SNAPSHOT (git-jenkins-zanata-server-github-pull-requests-1305)

Seam text output also validate potential security text, e.g. scripts
