It feels to me like this should be possible because syntax highlighting mixes colors.  I am woefully inadequate to help, but I feel like mentioning this might spark a guru's imagination.

I remember years ago when I used Notepad++ on Windows it allowed user-defined syntax highlighting, and I did so for my GTD system at that time.  I have no doubt one could create a personal syntax highlighting scheme in Emacs, but (how(me(ask(don't)))! <--- I'm sure that's absurd, but hopefully a funny indicator of my ignorance.

It would be a stop-gap with some pitfalls, but perhaps make all 2nd draft text bold and all 3rd draft italics.  The obvious pitfall is any already emphasized first draft text.

In a book that I am writing, the text is white on black background which
I like. But this is only the first draft, when its ready I shall go onto
the second draft and then third draft, as many as necessary to polish
the book before it goes to the beta-readers.

So the first draft is white text on a black background, is it possible
for all the second draft text to be in a different colour that I assign
to it? And ditto third draft onwards?

I envisage something like setting the text with 'M-x second-draft-text'
which will then display the new text with its assigned colour. Which
will also mean that the document will have multi-coloured text in it?

Is this possible?      

And if it is possible, how do I do it please?

Thanks
  Sharon.
