So what ? That's intentional
If you really want your users to suffer more, then
you can enable HTML mails ...

Ok fair enough. I don't really care as I'm the only user. Just seems a bit odd to have html templates and then have the default setting to send as plain text.

Yeah, that's bad, and doesn't even work very nicely.
The problem has been we didn't want to invalidate existing
custom templates. Nowadays it could be a moot point as templates
changed a lot.

IMHO it should be sent as multipart by default. Most users like nicer emails :)
