Strings starting with "=" creates unwanted formulas

Problem/Motivation

When you export a value which starts with an "=" it creates an formula or breaks the export because of an invalid formula.

Steps to reproduce

Create a value to export that starts with an "=". If you do this for an e-mail field which requires an "@" it will break the export.

Proposed resolution

By default escape values that start with an "=". If needed in the interface create an option that will allow formulas for certain field values.

Remaining tasks

Escape unwanted formulas
Handle the interface option
