5. This one's not a bug. It's just a wish list item. Namely, I'd give my eye teeth for the site to allow the html tags that support tables. The change is probably trivial for your programmer. Wherever your site is filtering text to allow italics and bold but not other tags, start allowing the table, tr and th tags. (and, of course, the /table, /tr and /th counterparts). That would enable us to type something like:

<table>
  <tr>
    <th>Company</th>
    <th>Contact</th>
    <th>Country</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Alfreds Futterkiste</td>
    <td>Maria Anders</td>
    <td>Germany</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Centro comercial Moctezuma</td>
    <td>Francisco Chang</td>
    <td>Mexico</td>
  </tr>
</table>

Or maybe we'd have to type the tags with square brackets instead of angle brackets as is currently the case on your site with bolding and italicization. Either way, we'd be able to get cool results in our messages like:

I can't think of any drawbacks to allowing these tags. At worst, a user who doesn't know what he's doing will screw up his own post by coding a table incorrectly.

It's just a thought. If you decide against it, I totally understand.
