The new delete confirmation messages place surround the name of the item to be deleted in <em> tags, as is the standard within Drupal. The problem is that this message is displayed via. drupal_set_title. This means that the message appears not only as text within the page, but also in the browser titlebar (in the title tags in the head section), where the em tags are not allowed. Therefore, the end user sees those tags.

Because of the way Drupal themes work, I don't think there is a way to put something different in the title rendered on the page from what's in the titlebar title (at least, not without a modification to every theme). I also don't recommend removing the name from em tags, as that would be inconsistent with the rest of Drupal. Therefore, I suggest that we stop using drupal_set_title to output the name of the item to be deleted.

Thoughts, anyone?

This was fixed by Steven's plain-text checking clean-up, which just landed.
