Of course you can put any HTML you like in the page template
(template.html).  But I assume you are asking about HTML inside the wiki
pages themselves. Although markdown allows embedded HTML, gitit uses pandoc's
HTML sanitization feature, so things that might be dangerous (like
applets) will be filtered out and replaced by comments.

You could easily modify the code to remove the santitization feature.
Just change the textToPandoc function so that stateSanitizeHtml is set to
False.
