Pywikibot itself internally uses wikitext almost entirely. Now I don't know what Flow internally uses, but when we are going to support HTML it should send the HTML to the server which parses it back into wikitext. Otherwise I don't think it's useful to handle HTML. And as wikitext is the probably the basic format, HTML doesn't really provide advantages which would justify supporting it. And pywikibot has support for any API calls so if someone needs HTML for some reason they can build the queries themselves.
