 Add support for Ruby markup. From the Community Portal:


-     see that older versions of HTML had spotty support for Ruby markup, but the HTML 5 standard added full native support (https://www.w3.org/International/articles/ruby/markup.en.html). Among modern browsers, only Firefox fully implements the standard. Other browsers provide partial support (https://caniuse.com/#feat=ruby), which should be good enough for our purposes.

         upgrade our version of HTML from 4.01 to 5
         redesign transliterated names to support Ruby 


-    We'll need to do the HTML upgrade for other reasons anyway. Once we do that, we'll need to decide how many developer man-hours we want to spend on redesigning transliterated names. For now, I will create an FR and we'll revisit it once the HTML 5 upgrade is done. It will also give the rest of the world, including our users and editors, more time to catch up on the browser side, e.g. Linguist's version of Firefox doesn't support Ruby.
