I would prefer if we could stick with a line based approach to this issue and something that can be resolved without having to look at a style sheet. If we do it this way, it doesn't become a pre-processor type comment any more and leaks everywhere, which can be a real nuisance, in particular for players that won't interpret the classes and only strip the <c> tags.
