 No matter @r-a-y I'll work out what we need by way of ease of access to
 these elements so we can change as see fit, I'll try and make a note on
 Nouveau tickets about it.

 fwiw I think that Mozilla ref sounds like gibberish tbh I would not say
 ''strong'' is correct nor do I understand what on earth they are on about
 but in html5 they attempted to redefine semantics for all these elements
 so to describe `b` as physical is not strictly correct, I do love Mozilla
 & their MDN site but on this I think they need to review their advice :)

 Semantics and markup discussions finished  please  do what you think best
 I'm just confusing the issue get things in and we'll worry about this sort
 of detail another time.
