I just upgraded to 4.47 after being on 4.12 since March and noticed
that emphasis font locking has changed a bit. I like the way it's been
rewritten, but org-emph-re still doesn't match a typical pattern I
use. For example:
*/usr/local/bin*
Since org-emph-re uses "[^" border markers "]", and the first / is
part of markers, it won't emphasize. For now, I simply removed the
markers from the two character classes, but I thought I should run the
issue by people here.
Comments?
Alex.

If I remember correctly, these classes are necessary to make emphasis
work correctly with stacked emphasis, for example */this is italic and
bold at the same time/*.
I guess I could take them out if stacking is forbidden, in this case
you example would fontify.

It's OK to me if */foo/* means italic and bold (this is how Gnus
rendered your example), but */foo/bar* shouldn't. Markers, stacked or
otherwise, should come in symmetrical pairs.

Nice example because there is a symmetric pair there. I have always thought
that this was a very ambiguous notation. I can see */foo/bar* meaning that
foo is in bold italic and bar is just bold with the two words run together.
For this reason (pesky slashes in path names, + as bullet characters,
underscores in names) I've abandoned this notation. The @<> is more
verbose, but unambiguous.

I am perfectly happy to restrict this notation to require identical
marker clusters surrounding the emphasized text. If you want to have
text with different emphasis styles run togeter, the below notation
seems safer.

The less typing the better for me. I used to use enriched-mode and the
sequences did get a bit tedious.
