Oh, please don't do this. I really want to campaign for the htmlText keyword to be deprecated, and an alias (eg "markedUpText") added and pushed. The htmlText property is an excellent and handy way to get or set text with all the stylistic attributes at once; but I'd prefer it was documented as using a set of conventions that just happened to resemble HTML. It isn't an HTML renderer, and I don't think it ever will or should be; and of course, because Rev supports a number of text attributes that aren't in HTML, so the conventions supported by the 'htmlText' property include some things that just aren't HTML. An HTML render object, or a browser object, would be a splendid thing. But I wouldn't want it to be built directly in Rev/MC (huge diversion of critical engineering resources on to a never ending path); and it shouldn't be confused with the handy property for accessing styled text of a field.
