 We currently output {{{<sup class="required">*</sup>}}} for required form
 inputs.  I'm unclear if this is decent semantic markup, and, when it is
 outputted by template functions, is not very nice to theme authors.

 Attached replaces the markup with generated content from CSS.

 I'm not that worried about it not working in IE.  Theme authors can use
 the CSS classes to change background colors or whatever if they're
 interested.

 Thoughts?
