   users from adding javascript snippets such as adsense or any other in to widgets
   from their user areas?
 * Similar to wordpress.com

 * I don’t know of any direct ways to do it, but that’s only after a very quick 
   search so there might be something hidden deep down in the source code that I’ve
   missed.
 * If I had to do this, I’d do it by wrapping the calls to `get_sidebar()` in a 
   call to `strip_tags()` and passing in the allowed tags like p, li, ul, etc. It’s
   a bit of a hacky work-around, but it’s able to be done that way.

 * By default, no one but the super admin can insert iframes or embed or (I THOUGHT)
   JS.
