I don't like it much. At times I like turning off every markup but the text. Then I'm not distracted even by verse numbers as I listen to His word.

The highlighting we have is limited at this time to <hi type="xxx">...</hi> where xxx is the type of highlighting such as underline, italics, small-caps, ....

We don't have it but it might be nice to have markings that can be toggled. I could see having such for a critical apparatus of a Greek text.

If I were to design it, I'd use the <milestone marker="⌈" type="x-apparatus"/>

In Him,
