There is no easier solution now.

The last time there was a plan for these phrases, it was to remove them and 
introduce ad-hoc insets instead.

If we do that we could
1/ introduce a way to define these forms easily (although then people will be 
clamoring for real macros in text)

2/ extend the autocorrect mechanism of mathed to texted.

IMO autocorrect+insets is superior to what we have now.
