Hi.
In 8.2 this produces an error:

SELECT headline('default', 'a b c', 'c'::tsquery,
'StartSel=<span class="style1">, StopSel=</span>');
ERROR:  syntax error
DETAIL:  Syntax error in position 15.

while this works:
SELECT headline('default', 'a b c', 'c'::tsquery,
'StartSel=<b>, StopSel=</b>');  headline
--------------a b <b>c</b>
(1 row)

In the modern age people use stylesheets and it seems awkward that it's not
possible to highlight headlines using stylesheets in PG. Is this intentional,
or a glitch? Is it possible to extend ts_headline to support more advanced
markup in StartSel?
