Being someone who uses org-mode primarily for the appearance in the
org-buffer while I'm editing and using org, I really do not like this.
 It may format nicely after export, but it looks ugly in the buffer.
I suggested something before that should be able to fontify nicely (I
think) and could be translated by exporters but it didn't go over
well.  In the end, this could go in and I'd just avoid it, but I'd
hate to have this become *the way* to mark content when it only looks
presentable after export.  At least, that's my knee-jerk reaction.
