Unsure of the reason behind the poor rating and “doesn’t work” vote. Possibly the user didn’t realized this only adds tags to the HTML editor? If you use this plugin and it works for you, I’d appreciate it if you’d give my a good star rating and an “it works” vote.
Conversely, if you have trouble, please post to the forums, and/or ask me on twitter (@trepmal).
If you need this to work on WordPress < 3.3 download 2.2.1.
