Hearing about cue points in media elements. Just sorta reminds me of keyTimes in SMIL. I know SMIL seems funky to some people, but I do really love it! It is so way cool! So far as I know it doesn't do quite what you're talking about here, but it does similar stuff including non-linear distort

Embedded and inline editors would include the textarea tag, which is clearly not WYSIWYG for HTML (but is for plain text) so both are poor terms. Embedded, inline editors would include "contenteditable" areas and documents with "designMode" on, like the box I'm typing in right now in Gmail. Qu

The current phrasing doesn't restrict this to span. It allows "WYSIWYG editors" to produce blah where blah is appropriate. If I understand correctly, even that wouldn't be correct, because the only attribute specifically allowed on is the "style" attribute. I don't personally know of any
