I don't think you should use the "style" attribute at all. I think it's better

classes, or similar.
Yes it's always better to use classes and style them in a CSS file. However, in
this
instance these tags are used to give an immediate result regardless of whether
or not an
accompanying css file exists.
Exactly. Moreover, since these macros are designed to produce a specific presentational
effect, I think specifying this presentational effect in the HTML directly is defensible.
CSS classes should ideally be semantic, rather than presentational.
We could also add classes to the spans in addition to the
style tags in-case people wanted to use CSS files to style.
I think that people who want to do this would probably define their own Ddoc templates to
do so. IIRC they would need to anyway, in order to make the HTML file include the <link>
tag to import the CSS file.
