A member of one of my groups included HTML anchor links in a forum post. Well, I'm not sure whether she actually typed in the HTML into her post, but that's what I think she did. The resulting notification message showed links like this:

blah blah blah <a href="URL">blah</a> blah blah blah

After receiving this notification by email, the member requested that such HTML tags be embedded in the notification messages, so I'm opening the ticket here for discussion. I suppose that there are conceivable security risks, but I don't see them as being that large due to the nature of our community.
