In short, Gerald, in the guide you're preparing I wouldn't mention <i>

not to disagree with your point (but rather to agree: Gruber is careful
to say 'emphasis' when defining this) but any committee that had the
time to distinguish to that extent between what is traditionally done
with italics (and frankly, is a false set of distinctions since
everything under '<i>' is traditionally italicised *for emphasis* (sic))
is a committee that needed to get out more;)_______________________________________________
