What if we just stored the wikistyle source in a comment upon output?

    %red% This is red text %% normal text

becomes

    <!--%red%--><span style='color:red'>This is red text <!--%%--></span> 
    normal text

Then it'd be pretty easy to recover the wikistyle specification
that was entered at that point, while still allowing the HTML editing.
