Good idea, avoids also the problems with missing bold face as indicator. This 
way you can also indicate different things.

After thinking again about it, I suggest not to take _too_ much care about 
this. Currently it is enough and the shared lib is a long term project. My 
intention is to provide something for the whole edu project and the current 
files are probably just something to get started and discuss about.

The only issue I care about is comatibility. qt2 -> qt3 is ok since you kept 
the reader and ignored the content. qt3 -> qt2 is probably not worth to take 
care about as the advantage is too high and most people will update soon 
anyway. I will also remove the choice (for saving) between latin1 and utf8.

Tell me when you are subscribed to the developers list.
