In particular, it would be lovely if we could associate some CSS with
the annotations in a RELAX NG grammar. (After all, the tooltip is
just a box -- I realize it might be just a box of text, but it may be
a box that has gone through a rendering engine for all I know.) 

I, of course, use the TEI elements designed for annotating XML
constructs. E.g.
  <tei:desc>The <tei:att>algorithm</tei:att> attribute need not be
  specified on the <tei:gi>sort</tei:gi> element, but if it is not
  specified, the application picks the algorithm at random. Woe to
  you if it picks <tei:val>blort</tei:val>!</tei:desc>
And would love to be able to render those in a pretty way.

(And if oXygen can already do this, just tell me how, and smirk to
yourselves as I congratulate you and a job already well done. :-)
