allow some text formatting in subject lines

Title:
allow some text formatting in subject lines

Area:
entries

Summary:
Currently all html formatting tags are stripped from the subject lines. I would like to have some allowed that would make it possible to format words like italics, underline, or strike through.

Description:
While it makes sense to disallow most html in subject lines, even tags that are allowed in entries (nobody would want tables or embedded elements or anything like that there that would break layout and page logic), I don't see how text formatting could hurt. Several times now I have wanted to use strike through in particular in my subject lines, but it is impossible. I would like to be able to use a little text formatting there, mainly just the most common font style tags like strike through, italics, bold, underline, and perhaps sub/superscript.
