Well, that doesn't always help an author who doesn't have access

(:css .class { ... } :) markup to define classes within wiki pages.
Then someone would do

    (:css .box { border:1px solid black; } :)

    (:css .box { border:1px solid black; } :)
    (:css .bgyellow { background-color:yellow; } :)

    %box bgyellow%  How does this appear?
