 Right now, `wp_trim_excerpt` is destructive. You can filter it, but once
 tags are stripped, you can't get them back without recreating the excerpt
 from the raw input. It would be nice if theme developers had an option to
 preserve at least some of the HTML formatting when using excerpts as post
 teasers (see #9260).
