Comment (by Nikschavan):

 I am creating customizations for a client, and the requirement is some of
 the words should have different styling, I wanted to keep it simple with
 just <span> tags so that he does not have to remember class names or id to
 put it in. I will be writing CSS for the span inside my wrapper class so
 that it does not affect any other spans on his site.

 Is there not any other solution other than directly skipping this spans?
 As it is valid markup, shouldn't this be allowed?
