Hmm, that seems a little defeatist. From some playing around, there seem to be
ways to style it without the span. Could you elaborate a little about which
browsers pose the problem?

A different approach would be to simply change wikibits.js and all current
skins to always pack the text into a span tag. From a test of all current
skins, this shouldn't cause any visual changes.
It would break some existing scripts, for example the site script in
[[en:MediaWiki:Common.js]] that renames the article tab on the main page to
"Main Page", but those will need to be adapted either way if this issue is not
adressed at all.

Long-time editors *will* want to use those two areas to place their personal
shortcuts, so much so that many or most wikis will have to workaround this
issue with an adapted version of addPortletLink in the vector.js. From what I
can tell, this is the last script compatibility issue that is still unsolved,
I'm pretty happy with the way all other requests were resolved. I really hope
we can resolve this one, too.
