User can insert bad anchor tags into the User-About and Package-Notes fields and when you view them (web interface) it causes a 500 error.

Need to improve filtering for anchors in markdown.

When viewing a user and a package, the about/notes fields contain Markdown, which may have links. These should have rel="nofollow" to discourage link spam.

The "Preview" button is a nice idea, but it doesn't seem to actually "preview" anything if the file MIME type would ordinarily cause the browser to download the file. If so, the browser does indeed just download the file.

This is notable in the context of most hosted file services (including Google Storage) which will deliberately serve a MIME type of application/x-some-junk-here in order to force a download.
