Yes it's on purpose: the warning is about markdown. If python-markdown 
and python-html2txt are installed, markdown is activated and is the 
default syntax in SàT, else it's not and XHTML is the default syntax.
I guess we should manage a way to recommand external libraries or plugins.

Only instant messages sent to Libervia are displayed. You can try with 
Gajim for example: the style bouton should be activated, and you can try 
to make a test bold or add color. I'm working now on using it in the 
other direction (Allowing Libervia to send rich text), and after I will 
add it to microbloging.
