What concrete badness would ensue?
It seems to me that it's backwards to value theoretical purity (it's wrong as a
matter of principle to use presentational markup without citing how people
would concretely suffer) to override a pragmatic i18n/author concern (that it's
easier to underline Chinese characters using <u> than using combining
diacritical marks).
Reopening.
