Excellent thought!
Perhaps the "too long" could best be ameliorated with an initial heading on the order of Must knows with a section which would cover only para and code tags; followed by the balance of the Textual.... section and the caveats?
I also like blokhead's table but wonder if that might not work even better as the foundation for replacing the existing Perl Monks Approved HTML tags; an observation I make as one who works with .html much of the time and who finds that table (as it stands) lacking for those without .html background, "whose name (it appears) is multitude."

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
