When using the function to write messages to other users (e. g.
<http://www.openstreetmap.org/message/new/Kurt%20Krampmeier>), the system
does not show text entered between "<" and ">" when displaying the message

This bug can cause a lot of confusion to the reader, because relevant
information can become hidden. If I had used the first sentence of this
bug report in a private messeage it would read like this
"When using the function to write messages to other users (e. g. ), ..."
