Why not a simple what you type is what is shown when posted, with one exception, "If what you type is not displayable, then it is replaced with some character string such as "<undefined char>" ".
And I'd add that that should also be exactly what you see in preview mode as well as when posted. No exceptions.
The fact this is not done must have a reason rooted in the peculiarities of web site programming, something I admit I know nothing about.
Or more likely it's rooted in the fact that Manlobbi used the former TMF forum code as a base and hasn't modified it to handle this flaw. There's no fundamental reason it can't be fixed. It's just code.
