I feel like this is a stupid question, but I'm having trouble finding
the info I need.
How do I control syntax highlighting in HTML export? Specifically, how can I:
A. Disable syntax highlighting entirely
B. Switch from inline colors to semantic tagging that I can style with
a stylesheet? I could swear that I've seen instructions about this
somewhere in the past.
Bonus question: why would HTML syntax highlighting come out monochrome
(as seen here: http://avdi.org/devblog/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/html.png)
when the export is done in batch mode from the command line? And, more
importantly, how can I fix it to generate full-color highlighting in
batch mode?
Thanks,

Remove htmlize from your load path.

Slightly off-topic.
As part of my odt exporter work, I would very much want to have the
exported code snippets marked up, well, differently. i.e., I need
flexibility in *choosing* what the tag ought to be - what you call as
semantic tagging. To illustrate, what gets emitted as <span>...</span>
in html export should in it's odt equivalent be emitted as
<text:span>...</text:span>.
I have emphasized it elsewhere, I think Org should use htmlfontify and
not htmlize. The principle is that something that is right within the
core should be given preference to that which is "3 rd
party". Furthermore, htmlfontify can generate htmlized source code that
is cross-referenced based on a etags database. If you browse to
http://rtfm.etla.org/emacs/htmlfontify/src/htmlfontify.el.html
and click on some of the links within the body text you would see that
it jumps to their corresponding definitions.

Let me guess - It is either htmlize not being in your load path during
the batch run or font lock being not being explicity turned on during
the batch run or font-locking simply not making sense during batch
mode. Ultimately htmlize or for that matter htmlfontify seem to depend
on the fontification done by the fontification engine.

Hm. Bonus question, then: source code highlighting via Pygments works
great with LaTeX export and the "minted" package. How hard would it be
to use Pygments instead of htmlize/htmlfontify for HTML-exported
syntax highlighting?
...and who do I need to buy beer for to make this happen, since I
don't have time to do it myself?

May be you could buy yourself a beer.
AFAICS, htmlize generates the css based on face attributes. I am sure
you could improve the results by customizing your face definitions -
font-lock-keyword-face, font-lock-comment-face etc etc.
As someone who is authoring a book you requirements could be
stringent. May be you use latex for producing book digitally and html
for getting the word out and striving to have similar visual effects on
both the mediums.

I've some hackish code, which I use to publish my blog. It
essentially, looks at all the code blocks in the html output and
replaces them with Pygments output for them. The code is here [1]

Aha! I revisited this question, and I found the relevant setting:
org-export-htmlize-output-type
From the docs:
Output type to be used by htmlize when formatting code snippets.
Choices are `css', to export the CSS selectors only, or `inline-css', to
export the CSS attribute values inline in the HTML. We use as default
`inline-css', in order to make the resulting HTML self-containing.
However, this will fail when using Emacs in batch mode for export, because
then no rich font definitions are in place. It will also not be good if
people with different Emacs setup contribute HTML files to a website,
because the fonts will represent the individual setups. In these cases,
it is much better to let Org/Htmlize assign classes only, and to use
a style file to define the look of these classes.
To get a start for your css file, start Emacs session and make sure that
all the faces you are interested in are defined, for example by loading files
in all modes you want. Then, use the command
M-x org-export-htmlize-generate-css to extract class definitions.
