The problem is in stdinsets.inc:
This is defined for a footnote:
Font
Color foreground
Size Small
Family Roman
Shape Up
Series Medium
Misc No_Emph
Misc No_Noun
Misc No_Bar
EndFont
As a consequence, everything is painted in black, roman, up-shape text.
I don't understand why this is made this way ?
Moreover, although No_Emph is specified, you can emphasize text now and
it is shown on screen...
I do understand that you cannot specify a color or font-family for text
in an ERT, so then a thing like this is useful. BUT, for an ERT two
properties are specified:
Font
Color latex
Family typewriter
EndFont
and all other properties are inherited, while this is not the default if
no Font at all is specified.
