Comment:

 Welcome to Trac, @pmk1071, and thank you for the report!

 Unfiltered HTML in titles, posts, and comments is
 [https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/testing/reporting-security-
 vulnerabilities/#why-are-some-users-allowed-to-post-unfiltered-html
 allowed by certain roles in WordPress], so this is a feature, and not a
 bug. (But I agree that it can seem odd 😂.) I'll close this ticket, since
 the behavior in question is expected.

 For future reference, please keep in mind that Core Trac is used for non-
 security related bug reports. However, if you do come across a security
 issue in the future, please refer to the
 [https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/testing/reporting-security-
 vulnerabilities/ Reporting Security Vulnerabilities] page for reporting
 guidelines. Thanks!
