I'm glad that I wasn't dreaming, and that this was a real problem. Repeating my message from above:
I just experienced a problem using the term HOST_A*L*E*R*T (without the *'s, obviously) in another thread. The editor seems to strip all my content following the word "A*L*E*R*T." I assume this has to do with the stripping of a potential javascript a*l*e*r*t call, but here I am doing nothing of the sort.
Is this a known problem with the editor, or am I doing something silly?

Edit: Took me several edits to mask all the uses of the term "a*l*e*r*t." Argh!
