These thoughts are very much like what I have, BUT working with technical texts
is not possible with plain text (where are my micro, ohm, degree etc symbols in
plain ascii??). In that case I would need unicode text, and unfortunately I
don't think authors would handle that.

My idea is to use HTML, but limited to a chosen number of tags. That way you
could use HTML entities for special symbols. Although I haven't tried it out
yet:-)
