Some web sites use an implementation based on this idea of a subset of
HTML.  You don't even need to use real HTML - just take the most useful
functions, like bold, italics - and build a sub-language.  In at least one
case I recall, a site used a format with []'s: [B] instead of <B>, etc.
This way you can safely remove any kind of tags, translate >'s to &gt;
entities, etc.  Naive users may not even know HTML anyways, and advanced
users will find it intuitive.

It's questionable whether there is real usefulness in allowing a full
range of HTML tags.  This solution fits.
