Allow HTML in Text Editor Field

Is it possible to allow HTML in the Text Editor Field? Yes, security concern. Don't worry about it. My users aren't random people.

I ask because it would be a pretty lightweight way of "integrating" social networks into CB. Facebook allows you to generate a profile badge and there's a LinkedIn widget out there that works roughly the same way. I could allow my users to simply paste in the HTML from those badges under a Social Networks tab and it'd be a lot prettier than having them paste in URLs from their profiles elsewhere.

I'm working on exactly the same problem. Did you ever find a solution?

My thinking at the moment is that if I can't find somthing ready made, I'll have to write a plugin to display the result and another to add a field type that would accept the html for the badge, but would check that it is valid badge html and not something suspicious.

One more thought. If you define a web link field in CB you can take the url specified in the Facebook badge and paste it into the CB field. If you give it a site name of "Facebook" this works pretty well.

The problem is that getting a user to do that cutting and pasting is pretty tough. So now I'm thinking about a plugin that would grab the full html for the badge, strip out the url and place it in a conventional web link field.
