title: HTML Select Option, text formatting
body: <p>Do any of the modern browsers support any type (any type at all) of internal text formatting (so that part of a single option is formatting differentially). Different side, colour, strength, subscript, anything.</p>
  
  <p>So far it seems that Chrome, at least, just deletes any tags put inside of option tags.</p>
  
  <p>I am looking for something to accomplish this style of result (without having to deal with canvases):</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;option value="8470621"&gt;Corey Perry &lt;i&gt;Anaheim Mighty Ducks&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/option&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>OR</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;option value="8474141"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Patrick Kane&lt;/b&gt; Chicago Blackhawks&lt;/option&gt;
  </code></pre>
