I think Doug asked for lightweight. HTML and XML markup aren't
lightweight by any means, although a special purpose plain-text oriented
XML (LTML for language-tagged markup language) might not be that much
more involved than plane 14 tags. It would also have the advantage that
standard XSLT tools could be used to translate between LTML and XHTML,
etc.
