I've tried that locally for one entry, but with somewhat mixed results, see

1. after selecting the entry from the list, the raw html text shows up
in the text item (see screenshot). How to prevent this?
2. the text is editable. So if the user changes the default text, this
(usually invalid) text is put into the tag value. Is this behaviour
intended?
(3. as you've said, the height grows.)
