These are very interesting examples! I have a couple questions on them.
In the example with 振り仮名...
- How is this expected to render if the editor wanted the annotations
inline?
- In the markup with an empty <rt>, it would render correctly, but
the accessibility story would be broken because you would replace
り with nothing if you were replacing the bases with their <rt>s.
- If you were providing an English or katakana gloss over 振り仮名 in
addition to the kana, that might create an interesting situation...
* If there is no way to have a "blank i.e. use the base" <rt>,
then I don't think the ruby extension markup (or XHTML Ruby
for that matter) could handle it. (HTML5 might be able to
handle the English gloss, but not the katakana one.)
* What would inline annotations look like for such a case?
