I prefer the CSS syntax. However, if you want to use XML, I think the
FOSI language is a decent starting point. E.g.,
<e-i-c gi="h1"> <!-- element in context is h1 -->
<charlist inherit="1"> <!-- inheritance should be used -->
<font size="14pt" weight="bold"> <!-- set some font properties -->
</charlist>
</e-i-c>
