A long time ago, something called "font propagation" was introduced in class Phrase to deal with concatenation of chunks of text with different font styles in HTML. For instance: <i>some italic text changes into <b>bolditalic</b> when tags are nested.</i> This wasn't an ideal solution. > Hmmm. The list doesn't set a reply-to back to the list.
