Rails Ruby on Rails → 2.x

Hello,

when I provide default values for text columns in migrations they are wrapped in quotes.

default_pages_body = %q{
<div id="top">

<navigation />
h1. Untitled

</div>

<div id="middle">
</div>
}.strip.freeze

create_table :pages do |t|
  t.string :path, :null => false
  t.text :body, :null => false, :default => DEFAULT_PAGES_BODY
  t.string :title, :null => false
  t.timestamps
end

When I use the form tag helper with a textarea tag I get the following content.

'<div id="top">

<navigation />
h1. Untitled

</div>

<div id="middle">
</div>'

Environment: Rails 2.2, sqlite3-ruby, rubygems 1.3.1 and ruby 1.8.7
