RE: suggestion for tag set <sarcasm> </sarcasm> pair

Is this an implementation of custom html  elements, usable for other element names, or specifically for sarcasm? (Ex. html5-name)

when you use the <html5-sarcasm> element, default rendering is with an reverse question mark at at start and end. It also has a role=note applied with an aria-label=sarcasm.

I would rather ask how <sarcasm>What a great proposal!</sarcasm> would differ from <span class=sarcasm>What a great proposal!</span>. If there are no default rendering, no default action, and no reasonable other processing in browsers, search engines, or other relevant software, it would as such be typical write-only markup. If there is some styling or event handling to be associated, using <span> or <div> with class is just as easy and works right now.
