Actually, the timestamps allow for Karaoke markup IIUC.
A cue such something like the following can work:
--> STYLE
::cue(:before) {
color: red;
}
::cue(:after) {
color: grey;
}

00:00:00.000 --> 00:01:00.000
Yesterday <00:00:10.000> all <00:00:15.000> my <00:00:20.000> trouble

Right now, you need that CSS to be interpreted by a Web browser. But I
agree with Carlos that we need a solution that is independent of the
