[JDEV] message formatting (XHTML IM)

[Justin Georgeson]

At UnBound Technologies, we had put some simple XHTML support in (bold, 
italic, font size). It was my experience that the feature was not widely 
used, and actually had some akward side-effects with MSN (extra newlines 
before and after messages, stuff like that). It was nice to have, and 
relatively simple to implement (thanks to Qt's RTF text area widgets), 
but didn't really have much impact on typical usage.
