You mean without any markup at all? I'm not sure about that. After all,
everything else (commands, user input, key combos) are tagged in such a
way that they will be visually differentiated from the rest of the text.
I think it would look inconsistent if only these instructions were
treated as regular text so, for our purposes, I think we
definitely need to tag it with something, I'm just unsure what.

Thank you for the input,
