I agree about the need to provide UI features to choose variable,

I won't argue the point about emphasis vs. strong emphasis. That's
mostly historical. We could always have something like <emphasis
strength="5"> if we really wanted.
However I do think that if the user just wants to do simple bolding and
italicizing of text, then they just want to do presentation-based,
non-semantic markup. And indeed they probably do want that, and that's
OK. But if so they should be using Word, not DocBook.
