Ok, but I don't think the ruby text is entirely a formatting attribute

When querying for raw text, as in formulas, or text export, do you expect the ruby text to be included?

If the caller requests the ruby to be included, then yes, otherwise no.
Of course the default behavior should be to exclude the ruby text when
the string instance is queried for raw data, but that doesn't mean the
ruby text data should not be there.

The way Excel works is as following: Think about a situation where cell A1 contains a text and phonetic text. The formula =A1 will return the main text only, and the formula =PHONETIC(A1) will return the phonetic text only. Formula cells with text results will never contain phonetic text information, so if you have the formulas above in cell A2 and A3, and call =PHONETIC(A2) and =PHONETIC(A3) in other cells, the result will be an empty string in both cases.

That would be consistent with XHTML ruby markup, but different from Excel.

Is that really different from Excel?  Because Excel is where the idea of
embedding the ruby into the raw text string came from.

As mentioned, only in text cells, not at all places where strings are used, such as formula results.
