Comment (by jeremyfelt):

 Ran into this today during our open lab and am passing along a +1 for
 allowing at least some HTML in menu item link text.

 The example use case: `Subscribe to <em>CAS Connect</em>`

 In which ''CAS Connect'' is italicized as part of the link text per APA
 style guidelines to reference the title of a publication.

 Right now this works when in admin menus, but is stripped in the
 Customizer—and then the content.
