Because I don't want to. ;-) I want bm-type bookmarks to be marked with
underline, but the colors of the characters I'm putting the bookmark on
should remain the same, whatever they are. This works as long as I don't

something I probably should do... I just wanted to know if this is a
known problem or not.)
