The use of raw HTML on the current site may make it easy to get your 
particular page to layout just how you like it, but in every other way 
it's pretty much a bad thing.  We have lots of pages which have HTML 
formatting tags in them - for example 937 pages have FONT tags and/or 
font CSS attributes in them, and even ones with Javascript embedded in 
the page content.  This means that it is virtually impossible to re-skin 
the site in a consistent way, and the ability to embed Javascript opens 
up a range of security issues.
