Mhh... I noticed a CITE element in the HTML4 spec. But it does not
seem to map very well to the TeXmacs/LaTeX cite semantic.

Unfortunately things are not that simple. For one thing, CSS should
not change the inline/block semantic of HTML tags. Also the conversion
can be non-trivial for structures carrying auxilliary data like cite.
Would you use a different class for every different value of a 'cite'?

Also, the boss does not seem to want me to use CSS in exported HTML.

I would appreciate any insight in this field because the HTML
conversion issues are difficult.

TeXmacs is NOT a LaTeX front-end and is unrelated to emacs.
