This may make HTML simpler, but the change would actually degrade the
versality. The SPAN elements can be freely manipulated via CSS, whereas
the <B> and <I> tags have a distinct meaning.

Likewise. It is good that the headings have distinct identifiers from
the start. This allows the ability to "embed" the HTML somewhere else
and not the interfere with the exixting "H" definitions. Like:
h1
{
/* regular */
}
h2.nroffsh
{
/* from roffit */
}
In this regard I'm inclined to not recommend these changes. Daniel, the
author, can comment more.
I appreciate the very good bug reports you put forward, that is what all
software needs.
