12084	allow preserving HTML in the_excerpt (specify allowed tags for strip_tags in wp_trim_excerpt)	sillybean		Right now, `wp_trim_excerpt` is destructive. You can filter it, but once tags are stripped, you can't get them back without recreating the excerpt from the raw input. It would be nice if theme developers had an option to preserve at least some of the HTML formatting when using excerpts as post teasers (see #9260). 	enhancement	new	normal	Future Release	Formatting	3.0	minor		has-patch needs-testing
