Let me clarify this issue: if target format _provides_ support for
given formatting (notwithstanding if target application is buggy or not to
correctly accept it) - then why worry users at all? Warnings should be given
_only_ in case if target _format_ is really _limited_ - for example, if you
try to save document with different font sizes into plain text.
