Preserve styles when breaking up nodes

This is a pretty big change. It mostly only does anything when there
are inline style attributes. So now when you have
<p style=color:red>foo<p>[]bar
and hit backspace, you get
<p><font color=red>foo</font>[]bar
or
<p><span style=color:red>foo</span>[]bar
instead of
<p style=color:red>foo[]bar
which makes "bar" red too. In principle it might have effects in other
scenarios too. If it doesn't, it might be best to just aggressively
kill inline style attributes on blocks . . .

+  <li>The CSS styling flag is an issue.  Currently authors are forced to turn
+  it entirely on or entirely off.  If it's on, it produces stuff like <code title="">&lt;span style=font-weight:bold&gt;</code> instead of <code title="">&lt;b&gt;</code>, while if it's off, it produces stuff like <code title="">&lt;font color=red&gt;</code> instead of <code title="">&lt;span
+  style=color:red&gt;</code>.  The issue is that authors might want a mix, like
+  making the markup as concise as possible while still conforming, and they
+  can't do that.  Changing the flag on a per-command basis doesn't help because
+  of things like the "restore the values" algorithm, which might create several
+  different types of style at once and has to use the same styling flag for all
+  of them.
