I've never seen any clear documentation from IBM on what is allowed and where. In a majority of places, I consider this unsupported and subject to removal. In Maximo, you can apply CSS classes (including with things like conditional UI) to controls which is supported. You can also use rich text controls which display a variety of HTML tags and is supported.
But other times where users have been able to enter HTML (like your description example) IBM has made an effort to suppress like (
IJ23871: HTML TAGS CAN BE INPUTTED INTO FIELDS WITHIN MAXIMO (ibm.com)). So while something may work today, I would not assume it would work tomorrow.

Subject: HTML in Maximo labels and field values
MAM 7.6.1.2; Anywhere Work Technician 7.6.4
It looks like it's possible to put HTML in Maximo labels and field values.
1. MAM List view
2. Anywhere list
(The hyperlink doesn't function here; but hyperlinks do work in other parts of Maximo & Anywhere.)
3. Anywhere detail form
4. Anywhere map footer
5. Anywhere map identify window
6. Maximo desktop map identify window
7. There are probably other places in MAM and Anywhere that allow HTML too.
Question:
Does anyone have information about what kind of HTML tags can and cannot be used in Maximo?
Thanks.
