I think it makes sense for @code (and @t) at least, to force an upright
shape and never slant the argument. It is necessary to change the
output for @code anyway, because \texttt is not enough: compare
\texttt{a : b} with \texttt{\frenchspacing a : b}.
The former has extra space after the :.
We can leave the other commands as they are unless a problem presents itself.
