Note that the author actually recommends the use of quotation marks as the
pragmatic solution.
Also note that on IE (on Windows), there is no indication of the quotation
being a quotation when a screen reader is used, unless the screen reader can
somehow recognize and communicate that italics is used.
Besides, the trick does not work on browsers that do not support the Q
element and do not have style sheets enabled (or have a user style sheet
overriding the relevant rule in the author style sheet).
