Hi Jonas,
unfortunately I'm too busy now to follow that. The reason why I think style is
not needed anymore is:
- if a client want to do styling, he knows it, and it just have to:
* use markup element as specified in https://xmpp.org/extensions/inbox/
markup.html
* remove, or eventually keep the markup at its discretion
- we can have an extension to markup to specify style-like syntax for markup
characteres we can safely remove, as mentionned in other thread. The syntax
can be exactly the one of style, this would not be an issue.
- at the end, using markup with a style-like syntax is exactly like style at
the only difference that a client doing that must add <markup> element to
specify were the styling is. I would rather not have "*" and other "`" in the
<body>, but if it makes everybody happy it may be OK.
If we keep style with an attribute in addition to markup (and XHTML-IM at
least for a while), we are just multiplying ways to do markup, and make the
message parsing more complicated (and bug prone).
The only reason I would see to keep style is for e2e encryption because OMEMO
doesn't handle anything else that <body>, and this is a bad reason : OMEMO
needs to be fixed, and markup doesn't prevent using it.

Goffi
