Bug: Any embeddable html object is executed.
This is one of those things that is a feature as much as it is a bug. However it is submitted as a bug report to catch the eyes of those who are scanning for potential risks. Maybe we should have a new category for things like this:
RiskyFeatures ?
The highest profile subset of this "embed anthing" risk/feature is javascript:
UsersCanPutJavascriptInTopics.

While battling trying to get JSCaleandar to work I found not only could I embed the javascript in the body of a topic, I could also enbed the
<LINK CSS> in the body &emdash; I didn't have to put it in the header.
This may be the browser being iberal in its interpretation, but it worked.
(OK, I admit it, I used
<!-- LINK --> to hide it)
