"And now, something completely different!" :) Serbian language has two standard alphabets and two standard variants: "ekavian" (standard in Serbia) and "iyekavian" (standard in Republic of Srpska and Montenegro). Is it possible to make some markup extension at the character (and group of characters) level?
Serbian word for "milk" is in ekavian "mleko", but in iyekavian it is "mlijeko". So, with some markup can bi written like "ml{e|ije}ko"; "bred" is "hleb" in ekavian and "hljeb" in iyekavian, so it should be written like "h{l|lj}eb". No one should be forced to use markup, but there are some people at sr: who would do that.
I propose reintroduction of Yat :)
