I'm not convinced how usable kupu would be if you permit users to enter 
javascript (remember the javascript is going to try to run while you are 
editing), but if you post an example of what you mean by the code being 
encoded I'll see what I can suggest.

Is it not possible to achieve what you want by extracting the javascript 
out to a separate .js file and then linking it in to the appropriate DOM 
elements based on particular class names?
