 * I’m creating a theme and I want the user to be able to highlight parts of the
   content of a Post or Page directly from the Post screen. This is easy to achieve
   if the user knows a bit of HTML, but otherwise I am hacking it by using the blockquote
   and h6 tags to provide specially styled sections. This has the obvious disadvantage
   of not allowing these tags to be used for their proper purpose.
    What I’m looking
   for is a plugin that puts a dropdown on the Visual screen which allows the user
   to select special formatting (just like the Heading menu, really). Anyone come
   across sure a thing? I’d accept a better hack, too! Cheers
