No HTML in global notice

Is there an explanation of the reasoning somewhere? If y’all are working on another tool to support non-dismissable global banners which allow links,[^3] it would be helpful to know when it will be ready. I’d rather avoid having to set up a customization if possible.

I apologize if I come off a little cranky. We didn’t know that this change was coming and it puts us in an awkward place. The community was going to be opened up to a larger audience next week and this change throws a wrench in the works.

Apologies for the inconvenience. For creating a non-dismissable banner, please take a look at this theme component:

It’s far more powerful and customizable than the global notice.
