Bug Description

First I want to say thanks for this great application.

I'm currently switching from my old moinmoin standalone wiki to Zim. Therefore I've modified a converter tool which originaly converts the moin syntax to dokuwiki.

My problem is, that mixed attributes are not supported by Zim. Is it possible to allow a mixture of bold+italic or bold+verbatim?

Sorry for duplicating. I've search for some topics but the wrong once. ;-)

OK, as fas as I understand, the GTk widget is able to show mixed
attributes, but your data model isn't able to handle it?

By the way. I dont' think that renaming bold to strongs solves the
"problem". For example, one of my use cases are verbatim blocks with
attributes to emphaze some parts. So in this case, even the style
editor doesn't solve the problem.

One can argue that mixing bold and italic isn't realy necessary. But
at least with use cases like so one mentioned above, this
argumentations fails. ;-)

Nevertheless, I'm happy with ZIM and resume converting the several
hunderd pages from moin.

By the way...

I have some more suggestions. What is your preferred way to get them? ;-)

Depends. If they are detailed feature request you can put them on the bug tracker. If it is more brainstorm like, mail me directly or open a discussion on the mailing list.
