I have to admit that I am not sure. Harcoding SUBSCRIPT SUPERSCRIPT to
output ^ and _ in text mode is not better than hardcoding them in math
as we had before. Maybe these functions could be changed in text to
insert the character they have been bound to, but this is really
hackish.

I do not know what the right solution is, but we have to find one...
