One downstream client that embedded HTML-in-MARC will almost certainly cause grief for is an OAI-PMH harvester. Unless your OAI data provider CDATAs this markup, the exposed XML will likely be invalid or at the very least un-namespaced. 

Same goes for MARC records emitted by unapi/ATOM/etc., I would imagine.
