Browsers should then use this value by default for any inline element where they currently use italic. No problem! i { font-style: italic; } i i { font-style: normal; } /* and to be sure */ i i i { font-style: italic; } i i i i { font-style: normal; } However, on the web nestled em seems to be used mostly to add additional level of emphasis, for which I think this might not be suitable. And nestled dfn-tags seem absurd to me. Lars Gunther

We're getting off-topic here, but ... That wouldn't deitalicize citei, emi, icite, idfn, iem, or ivar, when it should. As the levels of nesting increased, the number of permutations of these elements would explode. And it's not reasonable to expect any author who uses someblockelement {font-style: italic;} to remember to also define someblockelement cite, someblockelement dfn, someblockelement em, someblockelement i, someblockelement var {font-style: normal}.
