There's no real problem with implementing some kind of in-line markup:
"Here is some <important>brighter</important> text"
instead of:
["Here is some ", ('important', "brighter"), " text"]
I chose the latter because it meant that I would never have to worry
about escaping "special" characters in text. If there is enough
interest in supporting something like the former example, it could be added.
