fossil supports a subset of HTML, but explicitly disallows (and
silently elides) certain elements or attributes.

That's a great example. In Fossil a bulleted list has THREE leading
spaces, not two. For some months i've been wondering if a feature like
embedding tinyMCE would be feasible in Fossil, but the fact that
fossil has its own dialect (and own subset of legal HTML) let me to
discount it.

Assuming fossil supports enough HTML here then this shouldn't pose a
real problem. In the fossil wiki i tend to only use 3-4 different
markup tags (because i'm tired of learning a new syntax for each
wiki), and i don't remember exactly what fossil will/won't allow in
terms of plain HTML tags.

In any case, i'm excited to see that someone has done it - this would
be a great addition to the bug/wiki sections.
