I'm afraid I misunderstand you here, John:  "semantic markup of HTML5 is
limited to entire divs,"; this might not be farther from the truth.  A
<div> is a very abstract way to markup content and there is most likely a
better way to do it in every case - p, ul, blockquote, etc, etc.

I honestly think I'm missing the point here, as I don't see how a span of
text could be marked up with <span class="keyword">keyword</span> and it
even be considered to be more semantic than <b>keyword</b>.  Tags should
indicate what the content is, schema can be used to expand upon that, and
classes should be used to style - not to indicate meaning except in the
case of helping other developers understand the markup.
