Dear Keith/Mike,
What do I do with the end emphasis patch that Mike provided? I had planned to
integrate it, but of course I won't if you think it's no use anymore,
considering the new plans. Maybe you will reimplement the whole thing anyway?
By the way how exactly should I imagine this? You want to treat capitalization
as another form of emphasis, so I imagine a lot of the current code will be
ripped out, right?
