Apparently this option works only for element attribute values.

We could extend it so that it also gives the behaviour desired here.

Actually I just checked the history of this configuration option and it looks like it in fact works this way by design. Just the description of the configuration option is misleading. See how it was described long time ago: https://docs.cksource.com/FCKeditor_2.x/Developers_Guide/Configuration/Configuration_Options/ForceSimpleAmpersand

I'm closing this issue as invalid since this option must stay unchanged. Otherwise backwards compatibility will be a problem.
