Total support. Just a few simple things maybe, similar to what the forums support. Format doesn't even have to be that complicated, either, maybe just allow a few choice tags. Bold, italic, underline, size, color, autoformat links, turn a word or phrase into a link. None of that would require an overhaul of the tease system, just adding in some code for what displays the teases' pages.
Beyond formatting text though, I think adding/editing pictures and videos into the pages would become far too complicated too quickly. Part of the beauty of the (normal) webtease system is that it's simple to use and understand, and those with less technical ability but great creativity / writing ability can still just right in and not feel intimidated (Nyx can do that). Text formatting would be a step in the right direction while still keeping the system simple.
