Comment:

 One more time, for Latin-alphabet lovers: I don't care how you want to see
 emphasis in ''your'' language. All I want, that you use the CSS property
 <strong> to display it. Semantic web is not a buzzword. The official
 [http://dev.w3.org/html5/markup/strong.html description] is: “The strong
 element represents a span of text with strong importance”.

 Do you know about scripts without capital letters? Yes, they exist.
 Hebrew, Arabic, Thai and so on. If they don't have the possibility to mark
 words with CSS, they don't get any chance to show the importance of a word
 inside the warning. Bad usability for our non-occident friends.

 For now, if I use <strong> in some msgid's, wordpress displays the CSS-
 Tags itself inside the warning. We need to change some message procedures
 for making them compatible to msgid's with CSS inside. I'm sure it's all
 about
 {{{
 strip_tags()
 }}}
 on some places and the whole world smiles. So please, don't ignore the
 semantic web.
