It's a bit ironic that theming relies on HTML and CSS.

I think there's room here for a minimal language that would allow applying
colours/decoration to arbitrary Gemini contents without depending on the
HTML/CSS pair.

I don't have any suggestions (yet), but I think Gemini browser authors
have an opportunity to come up with a minimalist syntax geared for Gemini
contents that isn't as convoluted and rich as CSS.

What do you think?
