  Description     : HTML sanitizer to scrub user generated content of XSS

 Bluemonday takes untrusted user generated content as an input and will
 return HTML that has been sanitised against a whitelist of approved HTML
 elements and attributes so that you can safely include the content in
 your web page.


I'm packaging this library as a dependency of gogs, but this seems to be a
useful and well written library for preventing XSS.
