As stated in a relevant thread, where I was advised to separate this request from a bug in which the button renders in the previewer:

> [@The "button" HTML5 tag renders in the editor previewer, but not rendered posts](https://meta.discourse.org/t/the-button-html5-tag-renders-in-the-editor-previewer-but-not-rendered-posts/358811/1):
>
> If it being cleansed from the rendered post is deliberate because of security concerns that I’m unaware of, could you not at least just replace `<button>` with `<button disabled>`?
> 
> I ask because I see frequent misuse of `<code>` and `<kbd>` where `<button>` would be semantic, especially in tutorials and reproduction steps.
