Yogi,
Have you looked at the Txtfmt plugin?
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2208
It does all this and more... For example, it lets you combine bold,
underline and italic attributes (and in one configuration, even
supports the standout, reverse and undercurl attributes). Also, it
lets you apply configurable foreground and background colors to your
text. Here are some screenshots...

Hope it helps...
