/Please/ don't do this.
I promise ;-)
When I'm working on some HTML and layout, I try to keep in mind a couple
of my relatives that have vision handicaps. One has a severe color
blindness, which makes me careful about using colors alone to indicate
significance, navigation, etc. The other is legally blind and must use
very large fonts to be able to read the text at all. It helps that I
also spent a few years working with computing aids for the handicapped,
way back in the day. One of the better reasons to move all the
formatting out of the HTML and into the CSS is that it makes life easier
for the "screen reader" software that the vision impaired often use.
And I used to be know a deaf fellow who taught me about using a single
medium (like sounds) as the only user feedback for an action (don't).
