The approach is reasonable, but adding text nodes that contain markup
characters isn't. Add element nodes instead.

Or alternatively, why not add processing instruction nodes to the tree, and
turn these into HTML highlighting instructions from your stylesheet? That
will make it much easier to modify the display style for changed sections.
