And this is good! Wiki markup should focus on simple things. If it
were easy people would put colors and styles everywhere which is bad.
It's good that's it's not easy.
It's just an extension since we MUST have it for the wysiwyg to work
and be able to style documents without incurring the penalty of using
the {{html}} macro which would provide visual garbage in wiki edition
mode.
