 * Hi,
 * As I already suggested it in [this bug report](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/26681),
   I think Press This lacks a functionnality to allow HTML.
    The allowed HTML tags
   could be filtered to enable only basic tags, and plugins could act on that filter
   to remove/add tags.
 * Personnally, I hate capturing text with Press This than having to reformat it(
   bold, italic, underline, h1/h2/h3…)
