I'll assume you know more than I about that, but I've seen the symbol
fonts in UTF-8 and they're HUGE.

I'll try not to imagine spell checking a timing diagram.

Greyscale is something being considered for future versions, but as
a symbol font might be limited. Colours definitely works.

Well, "greyscale" is just color, limited to greys ;-)

Bold may be confusing on some symbols (undefined for starters).

I'm thinking "wide" signal lines vs "narrow" signal lines. It would
be a completely separate font; the correlation to "bold" happens in
the font's attributes.

Open Office seems to be able to synthetically bold and italicise the
timing font, although their "bold" is almost the same as normal.
