I believe that I see why your opinion differs now - it appears that you expect
this feature to be a formatting aid for a potential *reader*, whereas I desire
it so that life might be easier for myself when *writing* such markup. Am I
correct?
Note that I'm unfamiliar with that specific syntax - I've never seen XML-style
markup being rendered inside LO.

Thank you.
I would rather it be open because it would simplify architecturally the
implementation of quite a few FRs, but I don't believe I can implement it
myself. Is it still acceptable to reopen it in that case?
