Re: Acronym for Cougar?

On reasons for adding the HTML 3.0 ACRONYM tag into Cougar:

This sounds like a good enough motivation to make it worth
while. On the same lines, it is probably worth adding some of
the other tags from HTML 3.0, e.g. ABBREV for abbreviations,
PERSON for names of people (as opposed to things), INS for
newly added text and DEL for struck out text.
