Comment:

 I'd say this works as intended.

 `mytag>` is not a valid HTML tag, and shouldn't be stripped, just as `5>4`
 shouldn't be stripped or modified.

 `wp_strip_all_tags()` is designed to compliment PHP's `strip_tags()`
 functionality, but also strip the contents of `<script>` and `<style>`
 tags.
