Guess I have to middle post :-)

There are some HTML OBFU rules at the SA Rule Emporium in my sig link.

Also, I have been thinking of exactly what you have been thinking. Spawning
off a clone process in procmail to de-HTML the email (will body only work?),
run spamassassin on the de-html version, and either dump the score to a
variable or a temp file to be added to the next process of the standard
spamc run. 

Reason I haven't? Does seem like a lot of overhead and work for a simple
gain. So I'm still trying to just grab these spam tokens via regular rules.
*Bayes aside*
