We currently do not support extensions to emphasis, though we may do it
in future. See https://orgmode.org/list/87letvrege.fsf@localhost
Implementing new emphasis markers will require introducing a new syntax
object into org-element.el. Such object will unlikely be using a
single-char markers - single-char markers are problematic in numerous
edge cases; we should better introduce something closer to inline src
block syntax to allow arbitrary emphasis extensions.
