Not long time ago I posted a bug report about superscripts and subscripts not rendered when in-between italics markings, '/'. I would definitely like to see that code, and rest for  prettie-fying entities factored out into a minor mode that can be activated in any Emacs  buffer.

What do you think, is it to much work and where can you point out (just generally) where to look in the source for the code responsible for that?

Hi William,

thanks a lot for bringing this up.

Of course, Org would benefit from code cleanup and code refactoring.

And yes, we can collectively push toward (1) modularizing Org a little
more, (2) making Org features better interact with Emacs core features
and (3) integrating some of Org's features into Emacs core as Emacs
features.

IMHO the good examples you give fall into one of the category above,
and I think such efforts are likely to happen in that order: 1, 2, 3.

The better way to make this happen is to start a discussion with a
patch explaining how it makes 1, 2 or 3, then discussing the patch
here on this list - the smaller the better.

If you cannot make a patch, first discuss your idea, and once the
implementation seems clear, call for help by using a mail header:

Thanks,

 Bastien
