It comes to my mind that an appropriate name for this element woud
be "flag".
Putting a flag somewhere in a document does not emphasise but draws
attention to this part (as in Google or when manually highlighting
some passages or words in document).
To my mind a flag denotes a single point somewhere in the document
and does not denote a range. So I associate it with the real-world
analogy of a flag placed somewhere in the document. So I am not an
advocate of <flag>
This name best describes its usage and avoids confusion with EM and
STRONG.
