I actually do not think using '<emph>' inside the SYNOPSIS section
is such a great idea to begin with.  We do want `<literal>` mark-up
in the body text to tell the users that it is something they need to
type literally (as opposed to what they can substitute with their
own).

In any case, consistent mark-up in the documentation is good.  But
you would probably want to make it a separate series, either a
preparatory one before real content changes are made, or a cleanup
one after.

Thanks.
