Here's what I'm thinking of filtering out right now, let me know if you've got additions, or vehemently oppose any of these tags being filtered out respond below. Update: I think I'll basically steal the allowed HTML nate uses on Everything2.com. (Check it out here here). I'll allow A HREF's and basic TABLE TR TD tags in addition for now. I think those are the only things you should need for a plain-old writeup.

We can come up with a new policy for home nodes, where more is allowed. The options I see for home nodes are allowing people to selectively allow additional tags to go through unfiltered when they view a home node, level requirements for certain tags, an approval process for home nodes with possibly dangerous tags, or an agreement that users implicitly need to follow when constructing their home nodes.
