The problem with gnus-emphasis-alist, as well as many other parts of
Gnus, is over-reliance on regexps.  There is a limit to what regexps
can do, and gnus-emphasis-alist is damn near hitting it.

I've been dreaming about ways to define a nicer (more Lispy) language
to define heuristics, that deals with tokens such as "words" and
"sentences" rather than individual characters.  Making such a beast
usable, elegant, and fast is a highly non-trivial task.
