That's better than what I thought.  I thought images and links required 
some special coding.

Even so, the htmlText does not even handle basic whitespace rules.  (The 
way I remember them.)  This means even rendering the most simple of HTML 
requires some processing.  When Revolution can do that, I might concede 
that it can "render basic HTML".

Until then, the better name for htmlText is styledText.

(I don't understand the motivation for the current whitespace handling.  It 
might be so "get" returns what you "put", but I am missing the value of 
that.)
