Something of an understatement? The admin (and in a very large number of
sites, that's going to be the only user anyway) should be able to decide
what is and is not allowed, if there is going to be tag stripping going on.
Guaranteed to generate a lot of questions in the forums, too.

While having options (even default settings) to make WP "easier" for less
experienced people, those who not only don't know any HTML but don't want to
is (generally) a good idea, it's important not to do this at the expense of
the users who *do* know what they're doing.
