I have subscribed to the list and will be asking them about the
reasoning behind stripping the tags in the halfdump.  I can see no
logical reason to not send them, unless there is some crazy reason that
it speeds things up.

In this case, I would think that changing the color attribute would be
best.  Else there would be no way the visually impaired would know.  As
long as the text keeps the same face name, it should all be OK.
Actually, I guess a different face name could be used, but that seems
rather unnecessary.

Hopefully, I can get that started tomorrow.
