Comment:

 I'm standing behind (attachment:9993.2.patch) as a reasonable approach for
 the time being.  Since the output is also passed through esc_html(), it is
 not necessary to strip these tags.  It also opens up the benefit of having
 parity between the web view and the feed content.

 Unit tests, (attachment:9993-tests.diff),  are present and show failure
 before the patch is applied and success after.
