Not sure if its a bug in feedreader or the world is just doing it wrong again, but it doesn't display html tags in topics, which is something used in many places.
Like here http://www.gateworld.net/news/rss_gateworld.xml
Where they use to try to make something italic.
This has already been reported. Basically the title being marked up in HTML is not a part of the RSS standard. I lobbied that whether it is or not it should probably be supported by the reader because it's a small way in which a number of sites break standards and most other readers have no problem parsing it.
We cannot support it at the moment.
As said, HTML tags are not in RSS standard. RSS standard is the standard where you separate lookandfeel from pure data. Lookandfeel must be added by aggregator or RSS reader not by some smart feed producer.
Think about it - what happens if title is bold? It breaks the logic of Feedreader where bold means unread.
What happens if title is red - In feedreader 2.9 you could paint items red if they match some keywords. Again - this feature would break logic.
What happens if there is image in title. Quite a lot of RSS readers cannot display images in listviews...
...This list could go on and on.
Also from technical aspect that means we need to write HTML browser to article list view what is doable but not easy.
So at the moment we will not support this kind of feature.
