Hello all,

I like the idea of inline special blocks.  Given that we have recently
introduced [cite:...] as new syntax, could we generalise this and allow
any xxx in [xxx:...]?

With this, the example Max gave from texinfo:

>     By convention, the dynamic library for @var{language} is
>     @code{libtree-@{sitter@}-@var{"language"}.@var{ext}}, where @var{ext} is 
> the
>     system-specific extension for dynamic libraries.

could look like

   By convention, the dynamic library for [var:language] is
   [code:libtree-{sitter}-[var:"language"].[var:ext]], where [var:ext]
   is the system-specific extension for dynamic libraries.

noting the recursive embedded syntax.  (and not knowing texinfo, I've
assumed that @{ and @} are escapes for the braces but could be something
else.)

Obviously, this would be a breaking change for any documents that
actually had anything along the lines of [xxx:...] in their text.

Just musing out loud. ;-) And procrastinating from preparing my lectures
for tomorrow... Feel free to ignore of course.
