It's a very difficult problem to solve in the general case.
Imagine this markup:
<p>It's a
<strong>very difficult problem</strong>
to
<em>solve in the general case</em>.</p>
And then you want to select the text "difficult problem to solve".
You would essentially need to transform that markup to something like
this:
<p>It's a
<strong>very </strong>
<span class="highlight">
<strong>problem</span>
to
<em>solve</em>
</span>
<em>in the general case</em>.</p>
Is this doable? Yes. Easy? Far from it.
