The only sane approach for fontification is to use the parser. Any
solution relying to regexps is bound to fail somewhere, because Org
syntax cannot be parsed by regexps only. This would require to rewrite
the fontification process completely.

Per above, I'm not really interested in writing yet another workaround
for something that is going to fail anyway. For the time being, I just
accept that fontification is not perfect.
