shows that underline formatting isn't working.  BTW, when I was
reading the BoostBook and DocBook specifications, I couldn't find
direct style formatting elements such as "underline" and "italic;"
instead there were "semantic" things like "emphasis." (**) So what
BoostBook do these quickbook tags actually generate?


It generates <emphasis role="underline"> which gets translated into HTML as <span class="underline">. But our CSS doesn't do anything with that. We just need to add:

    span.underline
    {
        text-decoration: underline;
    }

This change has already been made in the QUICKBOOK_INCLUDE branch. Shall I port it to MAIN in time for 1.33?

I think so, yes. In fact, will it hurt if we merge the
include mechanism as well? I seem to have no problems with
backward compatibility with it, is there?
