It was a bug I was not very motivated to fix. It should now be fixed on
the export side, at least. I.e., "+-+" is exported as a strike-through.

Striking through nothing doesn't make sense, does it? In any case,
blanks are forbidden in the inner part of the markers.

We have to strike a balance here. Allowing emphasis markup around spaces
has more cons than pros, IMO.

The real issue here is that you're trying to bend Org syntax to fit
a foreign syntax. It may imply pain.
