ImproveRichTextHandling

I have several issues with the rich text handling of RT 3.8.8. A rich text email looks a lot different in the Display page from the Update page. For example, color text is only shown when updating a ticket. Part of the reason is because the HTML scrubber for the Display view uses different scrubbing rules from when the content of a transaction is quoted for Update view. Unclosed tags can mess up an entire ticket in the Display view, but then these tags are closed when they are quoted and sent to Update. This article is dedicated to improving rich text handling in RT.

ScrubHTML:
