I apologize for being unresponsive all these months. Yes I'm still
interested in this idea, although I have not had time to work on it
recently.  Life events caused me to have to stop working on it
completely a few months back, I'm hoping to be able to put in more time
now.

I haven't even been able to put that much time into my more popular
personal projects recently either!

I have been working on some code to satisfy the set of rules you
provided in a previous email of this thread.  I've made some progress,
but the code is a little messy and buggy.  I would like to clean it up
first before I present it.

Where I'm having some trouble is processing the contents of greater
elements.  My approach for them is basically to define an ansi-context
(see `ansi-color-context-region`) for each greater element and process
the inner elements using that context.  This seems to work except for
plain-list elements which can have other plain-list elements within
them, e.g.

#+RESULTS:
- <ANSI1>List item 1
  - Sub-list <ANSI2>item 1
- List item 2
- List item 3

Should the sub-list's sequence affect the rest of list elements in the
parent list?  If that's the case, then I think I can keep with my
approach and define an ansi-context for the outermost plain-list which
is used by all the other plain-list elements contained within
it. Otherwise I think I would have to do something like copy the
ansi-context for each inner plain-list and use the copy to process the
sequences in the inner-list so that the context of the outer-list is
unaffected. WDYT?
