    I'm trying to see if this supports some simple markup encoding:

    [B]Bold[/B]
    [I]Italic[/I]
    [U]Underline[/U]
    [url="http://volomike.com/"]volomike.com[/url]

    *bold*
    /italic/
    _underline_
    http://volomike.com/

    Ah, and I see it doesn't support any of that. Okay.

    So let's try some simple, sort-of HTML:

    bold
    italic
    underline
    volomike.com

    ...and some regular HTML:

    bold
    italic
    underline

    ..and a test on the hyperlink A tag where I leave out href=:

    volomike.com

    Okay, so if HTML is enabled, I'd be concerned about how well Vanilla blocks XSS (Cross-Site Scripting).

    And now some colors and font size changes:

    Big Red

    and some psuedo-html as another way of doing it:

    Big Red

    and if I specifically use a color value:

    Red

    Looks like a toolbar could be easily built for the comments that automatically wraps with the strong, em, and u tags (or b, i, and u tags), as well as provide the colorization via "span style='color: blah'" tag and font size via "font-size: 14pt" tag, and then there's images.
