Another way to do this is to actually look for the <p> tags
after things have been converted into paragraphs and styled.  Thus:

Markup('firstcap', '>%%',
  '/<p>((<[^>]*>)*[[:upper:]])/',
  '<p class=\'firstcap\'>$1');

This even handles the case where other tags have been inserted between
the initial paragraph tag and the first letter of the paragraph.

Then CSS styling can be done using "p.firstcap" as the selector.
