Many thanks, Martin. This will help indeed.

Yes, I think so.
However, I think I don't like the division of "classical" and "fontstyle"
insets. I think this is not necessary. Most importantly, it seems that you
output the fontstyle insets as physical markup, i.e.
<body text>
lorem ipsum \textit{\textbf{dolor}} sit amet
</body text>
while I want strict logical markup, i.e.
<preamble>
\newcommand\mycharstyle{\textit{\textbf{#1}}}
</preamble>
<body text>
lorem ipsum \mycharstyle{dolor} sit amet
</body text>
This is what my patch does. Also I think that *all* charstyles should travel
with the document (because people might add their own charstyles to some
document classes). So there will be no more "Undefined" charstyles.
