>>>In old messages, FAQ's e.t.c. people used HTML tags to bold or color text. Now it shows as tag. Take a look at faq #7997 for example. I don't think it was a good idea to change PRE tag bechavior because it affects existing context. I think that another tag should be used for that.

I absolutely agree. It doesn't work and screwes lots of messages (or FAQs items). If one message contains more than 1 code fragments, it does it incorrectly, etc.

Before implementing this feature it should be thoroughly tested in different variations. Currently it doesn't help, but makes a mess.

Or you can introduce new tags for auto-coloring and leave pre tags the way, they were originally.
