In Egyptian in the coffin texts passages are put in red, and this has
a meaning, but it doesn't mean that we wouldn't do it with markup.
Though if it WERE done by character encoding, it would be via BEGIN
RUBRIC and END RUBRIC characters functioning like left and right
parentheses leaving the display up to the very clever Egyptian-savvy
renderer.
