This is an interesting point indeed. I wonder, too, whether we could add
semantic markup to Org? It's not exactly what lightweight markup
languages such as Markdown or Org are meant to be. But we would not
necessarily need this in core, a semantic add-on would probably be
enough. We would need an interface that allows for more or less freely
defining semantic markup to Org text. A semantic org mode. Hm.
