Comment (by afercia):

 The Help text could be improved a bit. Currently, the relevant part is:

 > The Text mode allows you to enter HTML along with your post text. Line
 breaks will be converted to paragraphs automatically.

 It does say that line breaks will be converted to paragraphs but it also
 says it "allows to enter HTML" and a `<p>` tag is HTML :) so for some
 users having paragraphs stripped out could be unexpected and a bit
 confusing.

 Also, wondering how many users know what "WYSIWYG" means. The expanded
 form probably won't help so much. What about to change the sentence and
 just say what it ''does'' and not what it ''is''?
