Comment (by doktorbro):

 Dion, yes, ''they'' need education. But ''you'' can set a good ''example''
 by writing correct English and using CSS for markup ''wherever'' possible.

 >HTML Tags may be striped, or displayed inline in some locations, it will
 all come down to the particular string, and where'd being used; In
 general, you can include HTML in translated strings, however, if it's
 being output as part of a error message (for example in XML-RPC) the
 client may not support HTML.

 I understand the complexity of the wordpress. But in cases like

 {{{
 '<strong>ERROR</strong>: Enter a username or e-mail address.'
 }}}

 the message appears as HTML return only. And you still put markup inside
 the word itself. This is wrong.

 >So if something is being escaped that shouldn't be, You need to raise a
 bug about the exact string and where it's occuring to allow us to modify
 the code in question to allow translations to happen properly.

 I promise I will raise a bug next time I see it.
