    So, do you have a ptach/fix for the addon? If so, please could you post it here?

    My patch is so bad that I would not dare post it. :) Of course, I want to help, but I find it very hard to read and understand Vanilla code. It's basically its own language since everything has been wrapped in custom OO code. (That's not a critique, just a poor excuse on my part...)

    I just clean the NOTES output with strip_tags() and call it a day. Sorry!

    Please post it, then perhaps someone else can come up with a more elegant solution! Not everyone here is a code wizard (I'm not!) so don't be embarrassed.
