It has to be escaped, which could be ugly with HTML. For example:
[gitweb]
description=<div class=\"description\">\n\
This is a chunk of text which describes this repository. Some\n\
of this text might be rather long, and might need many lines to\n\
really be able to describe the repository in a nice editor such as\n\
vi running in an 80 character wide xterm.\n\
</div>
Forget a \ in front of a double quote (") or an LF and the entry is
corrupt. So as nice as it sounds it might not be the best way to
obtain a description for gitweb.
