Yes, that is true, O'Reilly books use some excessive styling - I guess 
it makes sense in these cases.

Generalizing the emphasis stuff is tricky, and I am worried that the 
regular expressions will match unintentionally.

However, I have now made this configurable, a test version is at

http://www.astro.uva.nl/~dominik/Tools/org/org-testemphasize.zip

In this version you can configure your own text styling through the 
option `org-emphasis-alist'.  Before I release this, some tweaking of 
the other new option `org-emphasis-regexp-components' might be 
necessary.  In that option you can also define the number of newlines 
you wish to allow in a single emphasized expression (default is one for 
now, don't increase this too much because of a potentially significant 
performance penalty).  Also you can ask for stacked styling in that 
variable.

For now, stacked styling is turned off by default.
