Saving DCR element within CDATA tag

Is there a way to design a DCT so that the content of an item like textarea is saved within the CDATA tag in the DCR.

No. Why would you need to? <, >, and so on should be automatically replaced with the appropriate entity references.

We need to pass the data directly thru DCR instead of rendering it in the TPL.

You could probably write an onsave event, that after the save happens, it opens the DCR, massages
the data however you want it & resaves.

Might be easier to write a PT to save it your way, but the FormAPI would be easier on the end users.

Now sure what you mean by this. What exactly are you trying to do ?
DCRs will be saved with UTF8 encoding. You can just convert it to whatever encoding you need when you process it outside of PT.
