It's simple enough on its own, but doesn't it open the floodgates to all the other simple-enough formatting-feature requests out there? Small caps, color, shadow; serif, hand-written, or display fonts; specific font choices; font sizes; combinations of these. It is not all that simple for a WYSIWYM format to natively support all sorts of visual styling across different backends with partly different vocabularies and even different feature sets (and the structure of ODT documents poses additional difficulties). My two cents is that it's fine to be conservative here, but anyway, let's get inline special block syntax first, so we have one syntax for any formatting features we do want to add.
