If the client can't interpret html you get ugly messages.

Bad, bad idea.
Apart from the security issues you mentioned and which are enough to
drop this idea immediately (at least for me):
Log messages should be readable by all Subversion clients. And using
html for those is way too much. And I don't want to load a browser
control just to show log messages.
