Among other things, this would involve deciding on a safe subset of HTML, advertising that safe subset in the Web forms, converting the HTML to plain text when e-mailing people about bug reports, and mysteriously losing the HTML as a result when people tweaked the description via e-mail. So it's probably not a good idea.

How about we print "Plain text only, URLs will be auto-linked" in fine print under each description/comment form?
