Please give an example of a message where HTML is not accepted, but where it
would be useful.
1) Almost all messages can use entities; without causing trouble.
It is convenient for coders and translators, and they could almost always
easily and safely be converted to their UTF-8 equivalents during
automated message processing, and even be rewritten into message source
files.
Only nbsp; should be kept so as to be visible for those working with
the messages.
2) Some HTML elements need to be supported for i18n in all messages that
are rendered as HTML (outside angle brackets)
I am aware of those cases (there may be many more):
i lang=en untranslated or untranslateable technical term or name /i
span lang=en untranslated or untranslateable technical term or name
/span
code lang=en untranslated or untranslateable parameter or file name
/code
span title= explanation or expansion abbreviation or short term /span
Of course, one could as well use arg var abbr or tt where there is
fit.
