This is not an exhaustive list. We have a number of markup objects that
are fontified overriding the containing element/paragraph/heading face:

- target links
- timestamps
- footnotes
- radio targets
- macros
- inline export snippets

I am not 100% sure we should unconditionally prepend their faces to
the containing headline/table/etc.
