Can we have {{{kbd(v SPC)}}} export to below for HTML?
<kbd>v <span class="key">SPC</span></kbd>
It will be tremendously useful for blog posts. At the moment, I use this

*Also stuff within angle brackets will hide in HTML if you choose to leave
the export as "v <SPC>" for HTML too!*
More specifically:

Looks good.

For HTML too! :)
If there is any interest in it, I will add tests and documentation.

Copying Oleh, as I believe he would also have some interest in this.
